Bank of America upgrades Weyerhaeuser to Buy and cuts price target

Bank of America Securities raised its rating on Weyerhaeuser (WY) from Neutral to Buy, saying the stock trades at a deep discount to its asset value and could benefit from a rebound in lumber prices and housing demand. The broker lowered the price target to $25 from $28. The upgrade also included revised price targets for Louisiana‑Pacific, Boise Cascade and Sylvamo.

The lower price target sets a new near‑term ceiling for the stock, which may influence investors’ valuation models. The rating change could attract buying interest from analysts and fund managers who follow BofA’s recommendations.
