Analysts maintain bullish targets for three underperforming Dow stocks despite shared exposure to slowing consumer spending.
American Express, Nike, and Walt Disney trade 16% to 40% below Wall Street price targets, with AXP at $310.66, NKE at $42.98, and DIS at $99.71. Analysts see upside to $361.57, $60.49, and $129.67, respectively, despite year-to-date declines.
All three stocks share consumer discretionary exposure, premium customer bases, and leadership transitions. Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan have flagged slowing consumer spending as a risk, particularly for middle-income households, pressuring these companies.
Despite the headwinds, Wall Street ratings remain overwhelmingly bullish, viewing the underperformance as a buying opportunity rather than a warning sign.
