BofA raised the firm's price target on Toll Brothers to $160 from $150 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. After underperforming the market in 2025, homebuilder stocks have rallied sharply year-to-date, but the firm believes weaker employment and migration trends, ongoing inflation and a more competitive selling environment driven by elevated new and resale inventory will pressure fundamentals through 2026 and make it a "reset year for homebuilders," the analyst tells investors in a year ahead note on the group.

Citizens also sees Toll returning cash to shareholders via buybacks and dividends "as another sign of its positive trajectory."
