GE Vernova Gets Street-Low $470 Target as Analyst Calls Valuation a Software-Style Mispricing — BigGo Finance

GE Vernova (GEV) shares fell 8.6% after GLJ Research initiated coverage with a Sell rating and a $470 price target, citing overvaluation. The firm argues the stock's high multiple is unjustified for a cyclical business. GEV raised its revenue guidance to $45.5B-$46.5B, citing strong data center demand. The stock is down 25% from its 52-week high but up 33% year-to-date. Analysts' average price target is $1,237.
