Price-target raises across 1,790 names
Price-target raises were measured across 1,790 names over the last three years; 49% of them have a positive median reaction at 30 minutes. An analyst lifts their price target while keeping the rating. Often the news is already priced in.
Price-target raises do not move one way.
A raise is not a green light: NVDA and AAPL PT raises closed lower on average (NVDA median −0.42% to the close), consistent with sell-the-news.
Across all 1,790 measured names, 49% have a positive median 30-minute reaction and 49 have a median of exactly 0.00%. No single median is published for the class: with the names split that evenly, the middle of that distribution is zero, and it is zero on all six of these pages.
