Neutral -> Buy

Reason

Goldman Sachs upgraded Moody's to Buy from Neutral with a price target of $570, up from $524. The firm sees structural and cyclical tailwinds driving "healthy" debt issuance volumes and ratings revenue growth over the near-to-medium term. Moody's is the the closest pure-play public rating agency with the most leverage to these trends, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

The firm notes the company delivered strong Q3 results above Street expectations driven by better-than-expected issuance. Tight spreads, an increase in M&A activity, and growing refinance walls should support issuance momentum ahead, Wells adds.

Reason

Stifel lowered the firm's price target on Moody's to $471 from $526 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. The debt issuance outlook seems better into 2026, says the analyst, whose estimate changes incorporate a "rosier MIS outlook, but a slightly more conservative MA revenue outlook." The firm is lowering its price target to reflect lower valuations in the Info Services comp group, the analyst noted.

Reason

Clear Street initiated coverage of Moody's with a Buy rating and $558 price target. Other than the growing debt outstanding trend that Moody's can benefit from, management has been investing into AI and the private market, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes the company has become a data and analytics provider than just a rating agency, and this simple model serves the stock well commanding a premium multiple relative to other high quality information services companies.
