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.

Honeywell International
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Honeywell International Inc.:

The stock is currently trading at $209.61, which is significantly below the consensus price target of $254.04 set by analysts, suggesting substantial potential for price appreciation as the market re-evaluates the company's value.
Honeywell International Inc. recently reported Q2 2026 earnings of $1.95 per share, beating the consensus estimate of $1.80 by $0.15, demonstrating strong operational performance and the ability to exceed market expectations.
The company offers a dividend yield of 4.54%, providing a steady income stream for investors, with a recent quarterly dividend payment of $0.70 per share made on September 4th.
Short interest has decreased significantly, dropping to 5,270,670 shares as of August 14, 2026, from 8,418,114 shares in July, indicating that investors are covering their short positions and potentially signaling a shift in market sentiment toward the stock.

Honeywell International
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Honeywell International Inc. for these reasons:

The stock is trading at $209.61, which is well below its 52-week high of $261.24, indicating a significant decline in value over the past year and potential ongoing downward pressure.
CEO Kenneth West sold 17,032 shares of the company's stock on July 27, 2026, at an average price of $243.77, reducing his ownership by 88.87%, which may signal a lack of confidence in the company's future prospects.
Honeywell Aerospace, a business unit of the company, agreed to pay over $2 million to settle cybersecurity allegations related to a U.S. Department of Defense contract, which could lead to further regulatory scrutiny and potential financial liabilities.
The company's debt-to-equity ratio is 1.39, indicating a relatively high level of debt compared to its equity, which could limit its financial flexibility and increase its risk during economic downturns.
Analysts have assigned an average rating of "Hold" to the stock, with 11 analysts recommending a hold and only 13 recommending a buy, suggesting that the market is divided on the stock's future performance and potential for growth.
