Reason
RBC Capital lowered the firm's price target on Williams-Sonoma to $206 from $213 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares after its Q3 results. The company remained a market share gainer and delivered better than expected flow through, though largely driven by tariff costs taking longer than initially anticipated to be realized, the analyst tells investors in a research note. RBC adds it is less excited about the setup as current category momentum seems to be price driven into a deteriorating consumer backdrop and as tariff costs continue to mount.
