Stock level and investor perspective

With Thyssenkrupp stock closing at EUR 15.21 on Xetra on September 15, 2026, the shares trade modestly below the average analyst target of EUR 16.38 and more clearly below Deutsche Bank's EUR 18.00 objective. The recent 1.33 percent daily gain, combined with the sector-wide uplift in EBITDA expectations reported by Citigroup, suggests that investors are cautiously pricing in a more favorable earnings trajectory for the coming years, while still leaving room for further rerating if the company delivers on operational improvements.
