What to Expect from Target Stock

Target (TGT) is showing a strong uptrend as better-than-expected holiday sales, improving fundamentals, and an anticipated increase in its EPS (earnings per share) in fiscal 2018 have led analysts to raise their target price on the stock and lifted the stock higher. The acute selling pressure stemming from the rising interest rates didn’t have much of an impact on Target stock. TGT stock has gained about 15.5% on a YTD (year-to-date) basis as of February 14, 2018, and outperformed the benchmark index (SPX-INDEX), which is up approximately 1.0% on a YTD basis.
