(NASDAQ:WWD) has seen a mix of analyst upgrades, earnings-estimate revisions and insider selling in the past few days, driving recent share-price volatility. Jefferies Financial Group raised its price target on WWD to $245 (from $225) and reiterated a “buy” rating, implying roughly 16% upside Zacks Research lifted its FY 2025 EPS forecast to $6.15 (from $6.09), signaling stronger full-year profit expectations Zacks also updated multi-year forecasts (FY 2026 EPS $6.97; Q1 2027 EPS $1.78) while trimming Q3 2025 EPS to $1.55 (from $1.60) CEO Charles P. Blankenship sold 5,000 shares across two transactions at average prices of $205.57 and $214.38, reducing his stake by about 6.4% The interplay of bullish price-target hikes and longer-term earnings upgrades against near-term EPS downgrades and high-profile insider selling helps explain recent downward pressure and volatility in WWD’s stock.Posted 1+ days agoAI Generated.
