Are the analysts’ targets justified or overly optimistic regarding where these stocks will trade in the next 12 months? Investors need to consider whether the analysts have valid justifications for their target prices or if they may be trailing behind on recent company and industry developments. A high target price relative to a stock’s trading price may suggest optimism but could also lead to downgrades if targets are outdated. These points warrant additional research from investors.
