Looking at the underlying holdings of the ETFs in our coverage universe at ETF Channel, we have compared the trading price of each holding against the average analyst 12-month forward target price, and computed the weighted average implied analyst target price for the ETF itself. For the Invesco NASDAQ Next Gen 100 ETF (Symbol: QQQJ), we found that the implied analyst target price for the ETF based upon its underlying holdings is $32.56 per unit.

With QQQJ trading at a recent price near $28.26 per unit, that means that analysts see 15.23% upside for this ETF looking through to the average analyst targets of the underlying holdings. Three of QQQJ’s underlying holdings with notable upside to their analyst target prices are Liberty Media Corp-Liberty Live (Symbol: LLYVK), argenx SE (Symbol: ARGX), and Lucid Group Inc (Symbol: LCID). Although LLYVK has traded at a recent price of $39.80/share, the average analyst target is 40.70% higher at $56.00/share. Similarly, ARGX has 36.16% upside from the recent share price of $365.81 if the average analyst target price of $498.10/share is reached, and analysts on average are expecting LCID to reach a target price of $3.79/share, which is 33.22% above the recent price of $2.85. Below is a twelve month price history chart comparing the stock performance of LLYVK, ARGX, and LCID:

Below is a summary table of the current analyst target prices discussed above:

Name Symbol Recent Price Avg. Analyst 12-Mo. Target % Upside to Target
Invesco NASDAQ Next Gen 100 ETF QQQJ $28.26 $32.56 15.23%
Liberty Media Corp-Liberty Live LLYVK $39.80 $56.00 40.70%
argenx SE ARGX $365.81 $498.10 36.16%
Lucid Group Inc LCID $2.85 $3.79 33.22%

Are analysts justified in these targets, or overly optimistic about where these stocks will be trading 12 months from now? Do the analysts have a valid justification for their targets, or are they behind the curve on recent company and industry developments? A high price target relative to a stock’s trading price can reflect optimism about the future, but can also be a precursor to target price downgrades if the targets were a relic of the past. These are questions that require further investor research.
