Reason
Deutsche Bank resumed coverage of Amer Sports with a Buy rating and $49 price target. The firm resumed coverage of global brands, off-price, and specialty beauty retail. Following a "surprisingly strong" year for retail, Deutsche is entering 2026 with optimism as it anticipates a "volatile but broadly risk-on" macro environment, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm sees solid top-line trends, particularly in the first half of the year, due to easier weather comparisons and a boost in tax refunds.

Wells notes that while it continues to see a winners/losers setup, bigger picture, the firm leans more positive on the space entering 2026 due to better-than-feared early holiday reads, benefits from tax reform, and optionality on tariff repeal/refund.
