QXO shares tumble after RBC slashes price target to $18

QXO Inc. fell sharply on Oct. 7, 2026 after RBC Capital Markets cut its price target from $27 to $18, citing weak residential roofing demand. The cut was announced by RBC analyst Mike Dahl, who kept an Outperform rating despite the reduction. The stock dropped between 6.6% and 7.7% to around $11.30‑$11.24, with trading volume more than double the average. The move came amid broader market weakness and concerns over the housing‑sector slowdown.

RBC’s target reduction signals lower near‑term revenue expectations for QXO, which could keep the stock under pressure until the company’s next earnings release. The lower target also implies that the current share price is well below RBC’s revised valuation, potentially influencing investor sentiment.
