Analysts Slash Boeing Target by $50

Barclays made one of the sharpest moves in today's batch. Anthony Valentini cut his target on BA from $300 to $250. He held his Buy rating despite the 17% target reduction. The stock remains in the buy camp for most analysts. 25 of 28 covering analysts still rate it a Buy.

UPS also drew attention from Barclays. Brandon Oglenski raised his target from $80 to $95. That is a meaningful 19% uplift. He still rates the stock a Sell, but the wider consensus is mixed: three Sells, 12 Holds, and 13 Buys.

On the upgrade side, Barclays raised its target on VEEV from $360 to $375 with a Buy rating. Saket Kalia backed the cloud software firm, which sits in a consensus of 18 Buys and just one Sell.

SPGI saw its consensus target nudge up from $515 to $523. S&P Global's analyst community remains overwhelmingly bullish. 22 of 23 covering analysts carry a Buy.

XYL got a target cut from RBC Capital. Jeffrey Reive trimmed from $135 to $125 while keeping a Buy. Xylem, the water technology company, carries 12 Buys and six Holds.

Sherwin-Williams SHW saw its consensus target edge down from $383 to $379. No rating change accompanied the move, with 15 Buys and 14 Holds among covering analysts.

Barclays lifted its V target from $420 to $440. Visa draws 36 Buys from analysts, with just two Sells in the entire coverage group.
