Weatherford price target lowered to $80 from $82 at Piper Sandler

Piper Sandler lowered the firm’s price target on Weatherford (WFRD) to $80 from $82 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The “double whammy” of reciprocal tariffs and more than expected OPEC+ production hikes sent the market into a tailspin over the past two days as fears of recession mount, the firm notes. Now with oil falling below $60/bbl creates significant uncertainty for Services as activity cuts and calls for pricing concessions are likely.
