Four S&P 500 stocks, including AMZN and ANET, receive buy ratings from at least 95% of analysts, per FactSet data.
Analysts are overwhelmingly bullish on four S&P 500 stocks that have risen this year, with each receiving “buy” recommendations from at least 95% of covering analysts. The stocks include Arista Networks (ANET), Smurfit Westrock (SW), and Amazon.com (AMZN), according to FactSet data. None of the analysts rate these stocks as a “sell” or “hold.”
The near-unanimous support comes as these stocks have outperformed broader market benchmarks year-to-date. Analyst consensus on such a high percentage of buy ratings is rare, signaling strong conviction in their growth potential. The data underscores a concentrated bet on select names amid mixed market sentiment.
Separately, Alphabet (GOOGL) will join the Dow Jones Industrial Average on June 23, replacing Verizon (VZ). It will be the fifth Magnificent Seven stock in the index.
