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.

PACCAR
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in PACCAR Inc:

  • PACCAR Inc recently reported strong third-quarter results on October 27, 2026, with revenue of $8.50 billion, significantly beating analyst expectations of $7.48 billion and marking a 20.8% year-over-year increase, which demonstrates robust demand for its commercial truck brands like Kenworth, Peterbilt, and DAF.
  • The company offers a stable income stream with a dividend yield of 1.32% and a payout ratio of 26.67%, indicating that the board retains the majority of earnings for reinvestment while still providing consistent cash returns to shareholders, a key feature for income-focused investors.
  • Wall Street analysts maintain a consensus price target of $131.96, which represents a potential upside of approximately 23% from the current stock price of $106.66, suggesting that the market may be undervaluing the company's recent operational improvements and earnings growth.
  • Institutional investor confidence is rising, as evidenced by recent 13F filings where funds like CenterBook Partners LP acquired a new position of 96,063 shares and Rakuten Investment Management Inc. increased its stake by 10.5% during the third quarter, signaling professional validation of the stock's long-term potential.
  • PACCAR Inc maintains a healthy balance sheet with a current ratio of 3.22 and a quick ratio of 2.98, which provides a strong liquidity buffer to manage operations and debt obligations effectively, reducing financial risk in a volatile economic environment.

PACCAR
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in PACCAR Inc for these reasons:

  • The stock is currently trading at $106.66, which is significantly below its 50-day moving average of $112.25 and 200-day moving average of $119.73, indicating a persistent downward trend and potential continued pressure on the share price in the near term.
  • Wall Street's consensus rating remains "Hold" with eight analysts recommending hold and seven recommending buy, reflecting a lack of strong bullish conviction among sell-side professionals despite the recent earnings beat, which may limit the stock's momentum.
  • Insider selling activity has been notable, with CEO R. Preston Feight selling 50,975 shares in July 2026 and Chairman Mark C. Pigott filing a sale transaction in November 2026, which can be interpreted as a signal that company leadership is taking advantage of current valuations to reduce their personal exposure.
  • Short interest in PACCAR Inc increased to 11,960,397 shares as of the October 30, 2026 record date, representing a 4.35% month-over-month rise, suggesting that a portion of the market is betting against the stock's future performance.
  • The company faces potential headwinds from trade policy uncertainties, as highlighted by recent market focus on tariffs and the upcoming USMCA review, which could impact PACCAR's supply chain and profitability given its significant manufacturing and sales operations in North America and Europe.
