Underweight
initiated
$28
Reason
Barclays initiated coverage of CarMax with an Underweight rating and $28 price target. The firm rolled out coverage on the auto retail sector with a neutral view. Sector fundamentals are mixed, but the dealers offer "resiliency and strong shareholder returns," the analyst tells investors in a research note. Barclays is constructive on the growth outlook for the digital auction marketplaces as it sees the companies gaining shared from physical auctions. The firm cites uncertainty over CarMax's strategy for the Underweight rating.

Reason
Morgan Stanley
Daniela Haigian
Overweight -> Equal Weight
Reason
As previously reported, Morgan Stanley analyst Daniela Haigian downgraded CarMax to Equal Weight from Overweight with a price target of $35, down from $56. The pre-announcement of the deterioration in volume growth and degradation in execution and uncertainty around new leadership likely leave shares range-bound until investors can build confidence in the new CEO and transformation strategy, the analyst tells investors.
downgrade
$47 -> $35
Reason
Truist lowered the firm's price target on CarMax to $35 from $47 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. CarMax is facing multiple strategic challenges and their results suggest that these factors are increasingly pressuring results, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The company's board is trying to hit the reset button, but any new management team will have their hands full and need to reassess the relevance of CarMax's business model in today's environment, the firm added.
