Vontier price target raised to $46 from $44 at Citi

Citi raised the firm’s price target on Vontier (VNT) to $46 from $44 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. With an upcoming change in U.S. administration, Citi remains “selectively bullish” on multi-industry companies as divergent market trends among industrial verticals could continue for the time being, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says exposure to secular growth themes could remain at a premium, and it also favors selective exposure to emerging tailwinds such as “Trump beneficiaries,” value, and tactical short-cycle exposure.
