<p><strong>Target Corporation </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>) shares are trading higher on Thursday. On Wednesday, Target registered first-quarter sales of $23.85 billion (down 2.8% year over year), which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45540759/target-stock-slips-as-q1-earnings-miss-estimates-fy2025-outlook-cut-amid-slowing-sales" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">missed the Street view of $24.32 billion</a>.</p>
<p>The retail giant lowered its FY2025 adjusted EPS guidance from $8.80–$9.80 to $7.00–$9.00. Following the results, analysts have made several adjustments to their ratings and price forecasts for the stock. Here are the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TGT/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">key analysts&#8217; takes on the stock</a>:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>BofA Securities</strong> analyst Robert F. Ohmes downgraded Target from Buy to Neutral, lowering the price forecast from $145 to $105.</li>
<li><strong>Telsey Advisory Group</strong> analyst Joseph Feldman downgraded the stock from Outperform to Market Perform, decreasing the price forecast from $130 to $110.</li>
<li><strong>JP Morgan </strong>analyst Christopher Horvers reiterated the Neutral rating on the company, raising the price forecast from $105 to $109.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><em>Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45560388">$1 Items, Made Outside China: Here&#8217;s How Target Has Been Tariff-Proofing Its Shelves, With Price Hikes &#8216;The Very Last Resort&#8217;</a></em></strong></p>
<p><strong>BofA Securities: </strong>Ohmes notes that while Target is experiencing overall softness in comparable sales, the company continues to perform well in areas like digital channels, seasonal categories, and brand partnerships, including the recent Kate Spade launch.</p>
<p>The analyst writes that merchandising efforts could help strengthen Target&#8217;s appeal and value perception over time. However, the stock is now notably lagging behind peers such as <strong>Walmart Inc.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>).</p>
<p>Ohmes has lowered the FY26 adjusted EPS estimate to $6.95 from $9.10. For the second quarter, the analyst projects EPS of $1.50 and a 2% decline in comps.</p>
<p>Ongoing margin pressures are likely, and he flags increased uncertainty due to persistent top-line weakness, pressure from tariffs, and a delayed comp recovery. Softer sales are also expected to lead to more markdowns, which would further weigh on margins. Over the long term, Ohmes believes expansion in high-margin segments like marketplace and digital advertising could help improve margin stability.</p>
<p><strong>Telsey Advisory Group: </strong>Feldman observes that competitors like Walmart are gaining ground in several of Target&#8217;s key product areas, holding or increasing share in 15 of 35 categories in Q1 FY25, particularly by appealing to higher-income shoppers through broader assortments, better pricing, and greater convenience.</p>
<p>The analyst also expressed a cautious stance on the newly formed Enterprise Acceleration Office. As a result, he has reduced his 2025 EPS estimate to $7.71 from $8.80 and now expects comparable sales to decline 2.5%, versus a previous estimate of a 0.3% drop.</p>
<p>The revision in rating reflects the continued challenging macro environment, inconsistent operating execution, limited visibility on the progress of initiatives, and potential risks related to tariffs, the analyst noted.</p>
<p><strong>JP Morgan:</strong> Per Horvers, Target continues to hold relevance as a retailer over the long term but emphasizes that a more supportive macroeconomic environment is needed to drive stronger goods demand, similar to the backdrop in Q4 FY24 when Target&#8217;s market share losses were at their lowest in over two years.</p>
<p>The current backdrop is complicated by tariffs (which could accelerate share to value players like <strong>Costco Wholesale Corporation </strong>(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cost#NASDAQ">COST</a>), Walmart Inc., and <strong>Amazon.com, Inc.</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>)), the analyst notes.</p>
<p>Target has reiterated its tariff strategy, which includes negotiating with vendors, re-evaluating assortment, diversifying countries of production, adjusting ordering timing, and taking price as a last resort.</p>
<p>The analyst also points out that management reported 36% year-over-year growth in same-day delivery, driven by the Target Circle 360 program. The service now includes no markups for hundreds of partner retailers, which Horvers views as an effort to grow subscription revenue and better compete with offerings like Amazon Prime, Walmart+, and Instacart.</p>

Target Under Pressure From Tariffs, Rising Competitive Gaps: Analysts

<p><strong>Goldman Sachs</strong> analyst Michael Ng maintained a Buy rating on <strong>Apple Inc</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AAPL/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast of $253</a> on Wednesday, ahead of Apple&#8217;s WWDC 2025 Keynote scheduled for June 9.</p>
<p>Ng expects Apple to demonstrate continued progress toward incorporating AI into its operating systems through developer access to its AI models for app development, as well as the potential announcement of Gemini AI integration on iPhones given <strong>Alphabet Inc</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) CEO <strong>Sundar Pichai</strong>&#8216;s recent comments regarding hopes to finalize a partnership with Apple by mid-2025.</p>
<p><strong><em>Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/05/45503796/why-is-alibaba-stock-trading-lower-on-monday" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alibaba Stock Slips as US Probes Apple&#8217;s China AI Deal Amid Rising Geopolitical Tensions</a></em></strong></p>
<p>The analyst notes that Apple will need to demonstrate further success with Apple Intelligence before investors are willing to underwrite it as a demand driver.</p>
<p>Ng expects WWDC iOS updates to primarily feature design updates to standardize operating interface visuals across devices and convenience-oriented feature introductions, like public WiFi access syncing, AI-driven battery optimization, and Gemini integration. Some reported design updates include rounded app icons, a floating tab bar, and more translucent app displays.</p>
<p>Ng believes Apple&#8217;s incremental improvements to the user experience through iOS 19, expectations for AI-enhanced Siri to launch later in 2025/26, and the potential opening of Apple&#8217;s Large Language Models (LLMs) for app developers should help it maintain installed base stickiness and increase competitiveness.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Ng projected fiscal 2025 revenue of $408.99 billion and EPS of $7.16. The analyst believes Apple&#8217;s valuation is appealing, asserting it is attractive compared to its historical multiples, both on an absolute and relative basis and when set against its key technology counterparts.</p>
<p>Most of Apple&#8217;s gross profit growth over the next five years is projected to come from its Services segment. This anticipated surge in Services revenue is expected to signify an inflection point in the segment&#8217;s investment narrative, thereby bolstering AAPL&#8217;s premium valuation, notes Ng.</p>
<p>He also highlights the durability of Apple&#8217;s installed base of devices as a critical factor. Apple&#8217;s robust user base provides significant visibility into future revenue growth, driven by the increasing attachment of more Services and Products. This phenomenon is understood to underpin the concept of recurring revenue, or what Ng refers to as the &#8220;Apple-as-a-Service&#8221; opportunity.</p>
<p><strong>Price Action: </strong>AAPL stock is trading lower by 0.48% to $201.15 at last check Thursday.</p>

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
<p>Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.</p>
<p>Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.</p>

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
<p>Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.</p>
<p>Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.</p>

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PECO#NASDAQ">PECO</a>)</strong> share price is at $34.39, after a <strong>0.12%</strong> increase. Moreover, over the past month, the stock fell by <strong>2.98%</strong>, but in the past year, went up by <strong>8.72%</strong>.

<h3>Evaluating Phillips Edison &amp; Co P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
<p>The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. </p>
<p>Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of <strong>57.08</strong> in the Retail REITs industry, Phillips Edison &amp; Co Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of <strong>59.22</strong>. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Phillips Edison &amp; Co Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. </p>
<p>
</p><p><img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747940426_1.png" alt="Guage" /></p>

<p>In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes. </p>
