JPMorgan Chase & Co. Lowers Insperity (NYSE:NSP) Price Target to $33.00

JPMorgan Chase & Co. has lowered its price target for Insperity (NYSE:NSP) from $35.00 to $33.00, maintaining an "underweight" rating, which still implies a 13.75% potential upside. This adjustment comes after Insperity's stock plunged 18.4% to $29.01 due to weakened worksite employee volume and negative profitability metrics, despite insider buying from CEO Paul J. Sarvadi. The company also announced lowered guidance for Q2 and the full fiscal year 2026.
