Raymond James Downgrades On Holding (ONON) to Outperform, Cites Near-Term Headwinds

On Holding AG (NYSE:ONON) is one of the high growth stocks outside tech analysts are bullish on. On July 22, Raymond James downgraded On Holding AG (NYSE:ONON) from Strong Buy to Outperform, setting a new price target of $66. Despite the downgrade, the firm remains optimistic about the company's long-term outlook. With the stock currently trading at $52.00, the revised target represents an upside potential of approximately 27%. A team of athletes showcasing the company's athletic footwear in an outdoor stadium. The change in rating reflects short-term challenges rather than a shift in the broader investment thesis. According to the analyst, macro headwinds, such as slower consumer spending and global economic uncertainty, could weigh on the stock in the near term. Additionally, the firm expects a quarter-over-quarter slowdown in wholesale sales for Q2, primarily due to the timing of new product launches. Even so, Raymond James continues to see strong growth potential for On Holding, pointing to the brand's expanding global footprint and growing popularity with performance and lifestyle consumers. The company has also been steadily building out its direct-to-consumer business, which could help offset short-term softness in wholesale. Looking ahead, investors will likely focus on how the company manages inventory, navigates economic pressures, and continues to innovate in a competitive athletic wear space. On Holding is a premium sportswear company known for its performance running shoes and expanding apparel line. While we acknowledge the potential of ONON as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

'Double Disaster': Boeing Stock (NYSE:BA) Slips On Strike Threat, Trouble for the F-47

Just when you think things might be going well for aerospace stock Boeing (BA), along comes the kind of thing that makes you convinced Boeing is trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. A growing problem for the F-47, and the very real potential of a new strike as early as Monday, are hitting Boeing hard. Investors are reconsidering, and shares dropped nearly 2% in Thursday afternoon's trading. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. New reports suggest that the engine for the F-47 might be a while in coming. In this case, a 'while' means 'up to two years.' That alone is bad news enough for the project, because if the engine is tardy by a whopping two years, then it becomes entirely possible the whole project will be delayed until after the second Trump administration concludes. The engine was supposed to be ready in the fourth quarter of 2027. That is still a substantial time off, but now, the engine will not arrive until the second quarter of fiscal 2030. A report from Breaking Defense noted, 'Considering the aggressive timeline the Pentagon is pushing to fly the F-47 before the end of President Donald Trump's term, a next-gen engine is likely out of reach for the fighter in the near future.' But that was just the start of the F-47's problems, as another one is likely to rear its ugly head as early as Monday. The other is brewing as we speak in St. Louis, though it should be resolved well before the engine arrives. (Another) Strike Incoming Workers at three different Boeing plants in and around St. Louis may go on strike as early as Monday. Boeing made one more attempt to establish a new contract with the International Machinists and Aerospace Workers union, but that contract was pretty soundly rejected at last report. That set up the union for a week-long 'cooling-off period' that will cool off absolutely no one, and a strike is set to follow from there. So why did the union pass on the latest contracts? Reports note that the issue was not that the St. Louis plant would have received far smaller raises than their Everett equivalents under the new contract, but rather, the biggest issue is a matter of work schedules. Under the new agreement, Boeing would have been allowed to move workers from eight-hour shifts over five days to 10-hour shifts over four days. Some employees would even have been obliged to take on 12-hour shifts, but over three days. Is Boeing a Good Stock to Buy Right Now? Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Strong Buy consensus rating on BA stock based on 18 Buys and two Holds assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. After a 26.66% rally in its share price over the past year, the average BA price target of $256.68 per share implies 15.64% upside potential.
