Honeywell International Inc. stock (ISIN US4385161066) was quoted around USD 201 on the New York Stock Exchange as of September 14, 2026, with the shares trading slightly below a recent high after an analyst downgrade to Hold with a USD 190 price target from Melius Research on September 14, 2026.
Analyst downgrade shifts tone on Honeywell International stock
According to MarketBeat on September 14, 2026, Melius Research downgraded Honeywell International from Buy to Hold and set a price objective of USD 190. With the stock recently around USD 201, this target implies about 6.1 percent downside from the prior close, signaling a more cautious stance on valuation.
The same MarketBeat overview reports that Honeywell International carries a consensus rating of Moderate Buy with an average price target of USD 251.48. Compared with the recent USD 201 level, this average target represents roughly 25 percent upside, highlighting a gap between Melius Research's more cautious view and the broader analyst community.
Stock trades near USD 201 with double-digit year-to-date performance
Data from a recent price snapshot on September 14, 2026, showed Honeywell International trading at about USD 201.38 during the session, with an intraday high of USD 201.54 and a low of USD 196.98 on the NYSE in USD, leaving the stock roughly 2.2 percent above the day's low and 0.1 percent below the high.
In addition, a sector comparison table published on September 15, 2026, indicates that Honeywell International's market capitalization stands around USD 37.44 billion and that the shares have gained about 13.73 percent over the past five days and approximately 21.71 percent since the start of 2026, underscoring solid recent performance despite the downgrade.
Valuation and risk considerations for Honeywell International stock
The sector overview from September 15, 2026, also shows Honeywell International trading at about 2.47 times a referenced valuation metric, suggesting that the stock commands a premium relative to some peers in its sector. For investors, this premium valuation in combination with the new Hold rating and USD 190 price objective from Melius Research on September 14, 2026, raises the question of how much further upside the market is currently pricing in.
At the same time, the Moderate Buy consensus and the average price target of USD 251.48 reported by MarketBeat suggest that a number of other analysts still see meaningful upside potential. The divergence between the USD 190 target and the USD 251.48 average reflects different assumptions about Honeywell International's earnings trajectory and margin sustainability in the latest reported periods within the last two fiscal years.
