Fox Corp. (ISIN US35137L2043) stock is trading around USD 66.41, down 1.40 percent, with MarketBeat showing a market capitalization of USD 27.87 billion as of September 2, 2026. The same feed lists a consensus price target of USD 74.38 and a dividend yield of 0.84 percent, while a Moomoo note says the shares go ex-dividend on September 2, 2026.
Ex-dividend date sets the tone
The ex-dividend date of September 2, 2026 marks a concrete catalyst for Fox Corp. stock, and the income detail matters because Moomoo cites a USD 0.29 dividend per share payable on September 23, 2026. That cash return sits alongside the current quote, not ahead of it.
Reuters reported on September 2, 2026 that Wall Street futures were slipping as bond yields and oil prices rose on Iran tensions, a broader backdrop that can shape the session for media and entertainment names. Fox Corp. stock is moving inside that tape, with the quote and yield giving investors a fresh reference point.
Wolfe sees upside
Wolfe Research named Fox Corp. among its top media and entertainment ideas for 2026, and Investing.com reported the house kept an Outperform view with a USD 93 price target. Against the September 2, 2026 quote of USD 66.41, that implies about 40 percent upside to the target.
MarketBeat adds another comparison: its consensus price target of USD 74.38 is about 11.8 percent above the same USD 66.41 quote. That gives the stock two clear yardsticks, one from the market and one from analyst expectations.
Why the dividend date matters
Fox Corp. is in the middle of a cash-return event and a fresh analyst debate at the same time.
Fox News and sports
Fox Corp. is still the media group behind Fox News, Fox Sports and its digital platforms, and that mix remains the core of the investment case. The recent analyst target of USD 93 focuses attention on advertising, distribution and sports rights economics rather than on a pure value story.
Quote and valuation
As of September 2, 2026, Fox Corp. stock trades at USD 66.41 on Nasdaq, with MarketBeat also showing a 52-week range of USD 58.23 to USD 76.39. The quote sits below both the consensus target of USD 74.38 and Wolfe Research's USD 93 view.
