Reason

Goldman Sachs raised the firm's price target on Belden to $135 from $120 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares as part of a broader research note on U.S. Autos and Industrial Tech industry. The firm is raising its US auto forecast to reflect more measured tariff levels than what had been initially proposed, even though it still expects auto sales in the US to moderate in the second half after pre-buying ahead of tariffs and what will likely be higher pricing in the second half due to tariffs, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Goldman Sachs sees US auto sales at 15.75M and 15.50M units in 2025 and 2026 respectively, compared to its prior forecast of 15.40M and 15.25M.

Reason

Goldman Sachs lowered the firm's price target on Belden to $120 from $139 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm reduced its auto industry outlook and estimates, saying it will be hard for the auto industry to fully pass on tariff costs, especially with softening consumer demand more generally. Tariffs will be a source of downside for both auto makers and suppliers, although the car manufacturers can partly mitigate tariffs with pricing, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Goldman's new estimates also reflect increasing strength of the Chinese car makers, and a slower electric vehicle transition in the U.S. and potentially Europe.

Reason

Loop Capital analyst Chris Dankert lowered the firm's price target on Belden to $145 from $155 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The company posted Q4 sales above the high-end of the guidance range for a 5th consecutive quarter as organic sales growth returned exiting the year, but USD strengthening and an uneven demand backdrop resulted in a softer-than-expected Q1 guide, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Belden remains "well positioned" to benefit from reshoring, North American industrial recapitalization, and rebounding automation demand however, Loop added.
