S&P 500 may face selling pressure as systematic funds reach full exposure
Investing.com - BTIG lowered its price target on Veris Residential (NYSE:VRE) to $22.00 from $26.00 on Wednesday, while maintaining a Buy rating on the real estate company’s shares. Currently trading at $14.54 with a market capitalization of $1.48 billion, VRE’s analyst targets range from $16 to $26, according to InvestingPro data.
The price target reduction comes as BTIG analyst Thomas Catherwood reassessed the company’s valuation metrics, though the firm remains positive on Veris Residential’s long-term prospects as reflected in the maintained Buy rating. InvestingPro analysis shows the company posted revenue growth of 3.92% in the last twelve months, despite reporting a loss of $0.38 per share.
The analyst note appears to contain some information about Capital One Financial (NYSE:COF) that seems unrelated to the Veris Residential price target change, suggesting a possible error in the factual context provided.
No specific reasoning for the Veris Residential price target reduction was clearly articulated in the available information, limiting further details about the analyst’s rationale.
The real estate investment trust, formerly known as Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, focuses primarily on multifamily residential properties in the Northeast United States.
