Analyst target price cuts dominated Monday's activity. Xylem drew the most attention. The water technology firm saw its consensus target slip to $152.82 from $154. That follows softer-than-expected earnings results. The stock carries a $30B market cap and just 2.1% short interest, suggesting bears are not yet piling in.
Domino's Pizza also faced a target cut. Analysts trimmed consensus to $416.55 from $432.48. That is a 3.7% reduction. The fast-food sector is feeling pricing pressure as consumer spending slows.
On the bullish side, TD Cowen upgraded Micron Technology to Buy. The firm raised its target to $660 from $550. That is a 20% jump in the target price alone. Micron is a $591B chip giant. AI-driven memory demand is fueling renewed optimism.
Corning also picked up a target raise. Analysts lifted the consensus to $147.47 from $145.47. Corning's optical fiber business is benefiting from data center buildout.
Carvana saw its consensus target nudge up to $425.77. The used-car platform continues to recover from its near-bankruptcy lows in 2022.
The clearest theme today: chip and tech infrastructure stocks are getting upgrades. Consumer-facing names face cuts.
