BMO Capital raised the firm's price target on S&P Global to $546 from $538 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares after the company's Investor Day. High-level guidance was relatively similar to prior Investor Day, although a bit more conservative in Market Intelligence and Energy while reaffirmed in Ratings and slightly higher in Indices segments, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The event also focused on Chief Client Office, which may help S&P Global operate in a less siloed approach and potentially benefit from upsell/cross-sell and vendor consolidation, the firm added.
