Mohawk Industries price target raised to $160 from $150 at Jefferies

Jefferies raised the firm’s price target on Mohawk Industries (MHK) to $160 from $150 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. For the building products group, the firm is trimming estimates to reflect the near-term headwinds given the wet weather and weaker housing starts, adding in its preview that the stocks could be choppy on earnings. However, the firm adds that it remains upbeat on 2025 with rates coming down and sees laggards such as Martin Marietta (MLM), Vulcan Materials (VMC), Summit Materials (SUM) and TopBuild (BLD) as poised for a relief rally on earnings.
