According to Markets Insider on October 5, 2026, Jefferies lowered its price target for Elbit Systems from USD 880 to USD 790 and kept a Hold rating. The report cited a defense-supplier valuation reset as the reason for the lower target. Elbit Systems was trading at EUR 673.00 at Lang & Schwarz on October 19, 2026 at 3:10 p.m. CEST.
TASE trading adds a second signal
Elbit Systems stock rose 1.80 percent on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange to ILS 2,343.40 on October 19, 2026 at 3:01 p.m. IDT. The same quotation showed a 52-week range from ILS 1,490.30 to ILS 3,095.00, placing the stock between its yearly low and high.
The Israeli quotation gives investors a separate view of the session from the euro indication in Germany. The price move came with a market capitalization of ILS 109.8 billion and a trailing P/E ratio of 56.46 as of October 19, 2026.
Valuation remains the key question
Jefferies' USD 790 target is USD 90 below its earlier USD 880 target. That change matters because the target revision points to a more cautious view of defense-supplier valuations, while the Hold rating leaves the firm's stance unchanged. The report was published before the next scheduled earnings period, so the target and the coming results represent separate reference points for investors.

Price position for German investors
The euro quotation puts Elbit Systems in the after-Xetra-close monitoring window for German investors, while the TASE quotation provides the latest home-market reference. The contrasting currencies mean the figures should be read as separate venue snapshots rather than combined into one return calculation.
