Reason
Citi analyst Paul Lejuez upgraded Ross Stores to Buy from Neutral with an unchanged price target of $146. Tariffs are likely to create "significant disruption" in the market, greatly increasing the availability of product available to the off-price retailers at attractive prices, the analyst tells investors in a research note. At the same time, a potentially weakening consumer environment will mean more consumers are likely to trade down to the off-price channel in search of value, contends Citi. The firm views off-price as "defensively positioned" in the near-term, but well positioned for continued growth in the long-term as other retailers "struggle and close stores." Citi expects Ross to benefit from the current environment and tariff disruptions, leading to better traffic, sales and margins.

2025-01-21
Reason
Morgan Stanley analyst Alex Straton downgraded Ross Stores to Equal Weight from Overweight with a price target of $140, down from $164. Against record gross margins, the firm thinks softlines profitability expansion "will be harder to come by" in 2025, which places the burden on sales growth acceleration and/or expense reduction. This setup makes 2025 more of a stock-picking environment in softlines, and also means the dispersion between leaders and laggards likely continues to widen, the analyst tells investors in a research note. As a result, Morgan Stanley adjusted ratings in the sector as part of its 2025 outlook. It is expecting a "more-of-the-same" softlines demand backdrop, but cautions profitability improvement may prove harder to come by this year.
