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.

You’ve never seen anything like this before (Ad)

For centuries, families like the Rothschilds, Morgans, and Rockefellers have quietly used one overlooked type of finance to build lasting wealth. Legendary investor Joel Greenblatt calls it 'the closest thing to a perpetual motion machine you will ever see.' One investor famously turned 50000 dollars into 900 million using this approach.

Expedia Group
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Expedia Group, Inc.:

  • Expedia Group, Inc. recently demonstrated strong financial performance by beating analyst expectations in its most recent earnings report, posting earnings per share of $5.76 against a consensus estimate of $5.22, while also exceeding revenue forecasts with $4.32 billion in sales, indicating robust demand for its travel services.
  • The company has seen a significant increase in institutional interest, with major funds such as Baird Financial Group Inc. increasing their holdings by 12.9% in the second quarter and California State Teachers Retirement System acquiring a massive stake of over 46 million shares, suggesting strong confidence from large investors in the company's future growth.
  • Expedia Group, Inc. offers a modest dividend yield of 0.70% with a low payout ratio of 11.97%, providing income to shareholders while retaining the majority of its earnings for reinvestment into the business, which supports long-term value creation.
  • The stock is currently trading at $276.88, which is below the consensus price target of $318.71 set by Wall Street analysts, suggesting potential upside for investors who believe the market has undervalued the company's recent earnings beats and growth trajectory.
  • Short interest in the stock has decreased significantly over recent months, dropping from over 9 million shares in mid-June to approximately 5.2 million shares by late August, which often signals that short sellers are covering their positions and that market sentiment is shifting positively.

Expedia Group
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

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

  • Insiders have been consistently selling their shares, with executives such as Robert J Dzielak and Lance A Soliday selling thousands of shares in August 2026, and insiders collectively selling nearly 12,000 shares worth approximately $3.88 million over the last ninety days, which may signal a lack of confidence in the stock's near-term appreciation.
  • The company carries a high debt-to-equity ratio of 2.21, indicating that it relies heavily on debt financing relative to its equity, which can increase financial risk and interest expenses, particularly if interest rates remain elevated or if revenue growth slows.
  • Expedia Group, Inc. has a beta of 1.25, meaning its stock is more volatile than the overall market, so investors may experience larger price swings and higher risk compared to holding a market index or less volatile stocks.
  • The stock has experienced a significant decline from its 52-week high of $342.00 to its current price of $276.88, representing a drop of nearly 20%, which may indicate ongoing market concerns about the company's valuation or future earnings sustainability.
  • Despite recent earnings beats, the company's net margin is only 12.97%, which is relatively low for a technology-driven travel platform, suggesting that a large portion of revenue is consumed by operating costs, potentially limiting profitability growth.
