Gold prices steady ahead of Fed decision, Trump’s tariff deadline
Deutsche Bank (ETR:DBKGn) raised its price target on Aberdeen Group (ABDN:LN) (OTC:SLFPY) to GBP2.10 from GBP1.95 on Thursday, while maintaining a Buy rating on the stock.
Aberdeen Group stock has gained 38% in 2025, making it the best-performing stock in Deutsche Bank’s coverage universe, compared to the FTSE Allshare index which is up 8% during the same period. The other 17 stocks in the bank’s coverage have performances ranging from -18% to +28%.
The price target increase represents a potential 8% upside from current levels, reduced from previous projections due to the stock’s strong performance. Deutsche Bank based its new target on a sum-of-the-parts valuation after marking to market.
Despite the reduced upside potential, Deutsche Bank maintained its Buy rating, citing the stock’s 8% dividend yield as an additional factor supporting the positive outlook. The firm noted that the total return potential remains attractive when combining share price appreciation with dividend income.
Deutsche Bank suggested that investors may need to adopt a longer-term investment horizon beyond 12 months or consider upside scenarios beyond the base case to fully benefit from the investment opportunity in Aberdeen Group shares.
