HSBC analyst Rajesh Kumar raised the firm's price target on GSK to 1,500 GBp from 1,200 GBp and keeps a Reduce rating on the shares as part of a 2026 outlook for the pharma group. The firm believes the sector is well positioned to outperform in 2026, "even more so if AI panic kicks in." HSBC's preferred stocks are "growth bucket ideas," but says "fallen angels and value could work as well."
Mizuho analyst Graig Suvannavejh keeps an Outperform rating on Ideaya Biosciences (IDYA) after the company disclosed the termination of its partnership with GSK (GSK) for two early-stage pipeline programs. The partnership termination, which Ideaya said reflects GSK moving away from synthetic lethality, is "both a surprise and of course, a disappointment," the analyst tells investors in a research note. However, Mizuho says both programs are early-stage and are not included in its model. The removal of future anticipated milestone payments from GSK has no significant impact on Ideaya's financial prospects, it adds.
