Analyst desks were busy on Tuesday. Target price moves hit several sectors. The most notable pattern: tech upgraded, housing trimmed.
ServiceNow saw its consensus target price rise to $144.88. That's up from $142 previously. The enterprise software giant carries a $94 billion market cap. 43 analysts hold Buy ratings. Not one rates it a Sell.
EPAM Systems got a target cut to $183.18. The IT services firm faces headwinds. Short interest sits at 14.6% of free float — elevated for its peer group. The reduced target reflects caution on demand visibility.
Both Home Depot and Lowe's saw target trims. Analysts cited macro pressure on housing activity. Rate sensitivity remains a drag on the home improvement trade.
Chipotle Mexican Grill drew multiple changes from different firms. The average target held at $43.50. The burrito chain trades at a $42 billion market cap with short interest just under 3%.
Palantir bucked the cautious tone. Its consensus target edged up to $181.14. Bulls continue to pile in on AI contract momentum.
Northrop Grumman saw a slight target reduction to $714.56. Defense names remain broadly held but the target creep lower hints at valuation fatigue after a strong run.
