Levi Strauss stock dips 1.89% despite UBS raising its price target to $33
Levi Strauss stock fell by 1.89% today, closing at $21.34 per share. The drop came even as UBS raised its price target for the company, highlighting a gap between market performance and analyst expectations.
UBS increased its price target for Levi Strauss to $33, up from $32, while keeping a 'buy' recommendation. This suggests a potential upside of around 54% from the current share price. However, the broader analyst community remains more cautious.
On average, analysts surveyed by FactSet set a lower price target of $27.29. Their consensus rating stands at 2.8 on a 1-5 scale, translating to a 'hold' recommendation. This rating reflects input from 18 analysts, as of January 12, 2026. Despite the mixed signals, the majority of analysts still lean towards buying the stock. Yet today’s decline shows investors may not yet share the same optimism as some market experts.
The stock’s current price sits well below both UBS’s and the average analyst target. While UBS sees significant growth potential, the market’s reaction suggests uncertainty. Investors will likely watch for further signals before aligning with analyst projections.
