Barclays analyst Tim Long made the boldest call of the week on NTAP. He raised his price target from $120 to $199 — a 66% jump — while reiterating a Buy rating. The new target sits well above the consensus average of $163. NetApp carries a market cap of $28bn. Short interest stands at 11.7% of free float, so a sustained rally could squeeze some bears.
Dollar Tree saw multiple analyst changes land simultaneously. The consensus target slipped from $121.30 to $124.26, but the mix of moves tells a messier story. Six analysts now rate it a Buy, up from six previously, while holds climbed to 12 from 10. The $21.7bn retailer has been under pressure as it navigates a potential Family Dollar spin-off and a tough macro backdrop for value shoppers.
Walmart picked up a target price increase from Tigress Financial's Ivan Feinseth, who lifted his target to $155 from $150. The Buy rating was maintained. Tigress sees the retail giant continuing to gain wallet share from higher-income consumers.
Autodesk was the notable laggard. Consensus target prices edged lower, dropping from $323.49 to $320.45. All 30 covering analysts still rate it a Buy, but the slight trim reflects softer near-term expectations.
