Here are some of the tickers on my radar for Tuesday, Sept. 5, taken directly from my reporter’s notebook:
- Airbnb (ABNB) and Boston Properties (BXP) both added to the S&P 500. Replaced Lincoln National (LNC) and Newell Brands (NWL). ABNB jumps 5.5%. JPMorgan raises price target on BXP to $66 per share from $62 but keeps underweight (sell) rating. The revisions will keep going higher here.
- Keefe Bruyette raises price target on Toll Brothers (TOL) to $101 per share from $94. Keeps outperform (buy) rating. The analysts cite higher deliveries and gross margins.
- Classic Bernstein. Growth is slowing but the analysts take Lululemon (LULU) to market perform from underperform (hold from sell). Sees flat to steady numbers. Worthless note with a worthless price target bump to $366 per share from $328.
- Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG): Baird sees pricing actions likely to support 2024 outlook. Favorable risk/reward, according to the analysts. Gets Baird’s “Bullish Fresh Pick” designation.
- Scotts Miracle-Gro (SMG) lowered to $60 from $70 at Barclays after the company cut guidance.
