Wall Street is pulling in opposite directions on several names after a busy round of target revisions.
Fortinet stands out as the week's top upgrade story. The consensus target price rose to $91.23, up from $89.57, after multiple analysts revised their outlooks higher. The cybersecurity firm carries a $65.8 billion market cap and very low short interest of just 3.2% of free float — bears are not betting against this one.
Corning also drew fresh bullish attention. Analysts lifted the average target to $175.33 from $169.53 — a nearly $6 swing. The glass and materials giant is valued at $139 billion and remains lightly shorted at 2% of free float.
On the downgrade side, Aptiv faces headwinds. Analysts trimmed the target to $80.85 from $82.24. The auto-tech company has faced persistent pressure from slowing EV demand. Short interest sits at 3.8% of free float.
Insulet also saw target cuts. The diabetes device maker's average target fell to $276.78 from $283.96. That is a drop of more than $7.
CF Industries bucked the commodity gloom. The fertiliser producer saw its target lift to $121.83 from $119.89. Three analysts hold buy ratings, matching the number of sell calls.
