DuPont price target lowered to $92 from $98 at Citi

Citi lowered the firm’s price target on DuPont (DD) to $92 from $98 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm updated estimates, price targets, and ratings in conjunction with its 2025 chemicals outlook. Citi maintains a “broadly neutral view” on commodity chemicals, saying most chains have some form of supply overhang and the first half of 2025 earnings are looking very similar to the second have of 2024. The firm says its top picks are reflective of confidence on long-term earnings power and durable competitive advantages at reasonable valuations in the cases of Ecolab (ECL) and Corteva (CTVA), and a “compelling” activist campaign in the case of Air Products (APD).
