Target stands 19.12 percent higher
TD Cowen resumed coverage on October 8, 2026 with a Buy rating and a USD 60.00 price target, as Business Insider reported. The target is 19.12 percent above the October 16 price of USD 50.37. That distance gives the analyst call more relevance than the modest daily move, while the October 19 report is the next immediate test for the estimate.
