Hippo price target raised to $36 from $34 at Jefferies

Jefferies analyst Yaron Kinar raised the firm’s price target on Hippo (HIPO) to $36 from $34 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm’s preference into 2025 among the property and casualty insurance and insurtech space remains personal lines, citing strong and improving fundamentals and hard market conditions that will possibly be extended should tariffs be placed, while it believes it is “still too early to become more constructive on commercial lines,” the analyst tells investors in a group outlook note.
