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.

Should I Buy AON Stock? AON Pros and Cons Explained

These pros and cons were generated based on recent news and financial data from MarketBeat in order to provide readers with the fastest and most accurate insights. They were last updated on Wednesday, October 7, 2026. Please send any questions or comments about these AON pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

AON
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Aon plc:

The stock is currently trading at $270.29, which is significantly below the consensus price target of $391.00 set by nineteen analysts, suggesting substantial potential for price appreciation as the market re-evaluates the company's value relative to its current depressed levels.
Aon plc has demonstrated consistent earnings strength, beating consensus estimates in the most recent quarter with an actual EPS of $3.81 compared to the expected $3.80, while maintaining a robust return on equity of 42.13% and a net margin of 22.27%, indicating efficient capital management and profitability.
With a beta of 0.70, the stock exhibits lower volatility than the broader market, making it a potentially stable holding for investors seeking to reduce portfolio risk, especially given that the company has maintained a Moderate Buy consensus rating despite recent market fluctuations.
Recent insider activity shows confidence in the company's long-term prospects, as Director Lester B. Knight acquired 20,000 shares in September 2026, a move that often signals that company leadership believes the stock is undervalued at current price points.
The company offers a dividend yield of 1.22%, providing a steady income stream for investors, while its business model in risk and human capital solutions continues to generate revenue growth, with year-over-year revenue up 2.2% in the latest reported period.

AON
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Aon plc for these reasons:

The stock has recently hit a 52-week low of $266.33, reflecting a significant decline from its 52-week high of $382.34, which indicates strong downward pressure and potential concerns about the company's near-term performance or market sentiment.
Several major brokerages have recently lowered their price targets, including JPMorgan Chase cutting its target from $412.00 to $362.00 and Cantor Fitzgerald reducing its target from $433.00 to $400.00, suggesting that analysts are becoming more cautious about the stock's future growth trajectory.
Short interest has been increasing, with shares shorted rising to 3,695,919 in the most recent reporting period, indicating that a growing number of investors are betting against the stock, which can create additional selling pressure and volatility.
The company's revenue in the latest quarter was $4.25 billion, which fell short of the consensus estimate of $4.28 billion, suggesting that while earnings were strong, top-line growth may be facing headwinds or slower than expected by the market.
Some analysts have issued negative ratings, with Wolfe Research downgrading the stock to a strong sell and Wall Street Zen moving to a sell rating, reflecting a segment of the investment community that sees significant risks or overvaluation in the current business environment.
