MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Expedia Group
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Expedia Group, Inc. for these reasons:

  • Expedia Group, Inc. is facing significant competitive threats from emerging artificial intelligence agents, such as Meta's Muse, which can search, compare, and complete bookings directly with airlines and hotels, potentially bypassing the aggregator model that Expedia relies on for its business.
  • The company has a high debt-to-equity ratio of 2.21, indicating a substantial level of leverage that could increase financial risk and limit flexibility in responding to economic downturns or competitive pressures.
  • Expedia Group, Inc. has a current ratio of 0.80 and a quick ratio of 0.80, both below 1.0, suggesting that the company may face challenges in meeting its short-term obligations with its liquid assets, which could be a concern for investors focused on liquidity risk.
  • Recent insider activity shows a trend of selling, with insiders selling a total of 11,950 shares worth $3,881,995 over the last 90 days, which could signal a lack of confidence in the company's near-term prospects or a desire to lock in gains.
  • Expedia Group, Inc. has a beta of 1.25, indicating that the stock is more volatile than the overall market, which could lead to larger price swings and higher risk for investors who are sensitive to market fluctuations.
