Dollar Tree Rises as JPMorgan Flags Stock, Barclays Lifts Target to $150

Dollar Tree Inc. shares rose roughly 2% on 21 July after a pair of prominent Wall Street banks boosted their views on the discount retailer. JPMorgan added Dollar Tree to its U.S. analyst focus list, citing the chain’s resiliency as consumers trade down amid persistent price pressures. Separately, Barclays upgraded the stock to Overweight from Equal Weight and lifted its 12-month price target to $150 from $115. The broker said the completed sale of Family Dollar has given Dollar Tree a “cleaner growth story,” with momentum evident in the first quarter and accelerating into the second half of fiscal 2025.
