Investing.com - Goldman Sachs downgraded Deutsche Bank (DBK:GR) (NYSE:DB) stock rating to Neutral from Buy, while maintaining a price target of EUR34.00, citing the stock’s recent rally. The downgrade comes as Deutsche Bank trades near its 52-week high of $37.55, having delivered an impressive year-to-date return of 121%.
The investment bank noted that Deutsche Bank now trades at a price-to-earnings multiple roughly in line with its broader coverage, at 10 times Goldman’s 2025 earnings per share estimate and 9 times its 2026 estimate.

Despite the downgrade, Goldman Sachs expects Deutsche Bank to continue improving its profitability and outperform consensus earnings expectations both this year and next (2025/2026).
The firm also anticipates Deutsche Bank will deliver progressive increases in capital return to shareholders through both dividends and share buybacks.
