Morgan Stanley analyst Alex Straton raised the firm’s price target on TJX (TJX) to $136 from $135 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares following a Q4 beat that featured “universal comp upside across segments.” Q1 and fiscal year guidance was set below the Street, but “screens conservative,” according to the analyst, who argues that the stock’s 2% move despite below-consensus guidance confirms TJX is “viewed as a scarce, high-quality investment option in Retail.”
