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.

In 1929, the Dow fell 89 percent and took 25 years to recover. A 60-year-old who held on wasn't whole again until age 85. In 2008, one bad year wiped out more than half the savings of those aged 56 to 65. Today, the national debt stands at 38.86 trillion dollars, far higher than in 1929.

Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Carrier Global Co.:

  • Carrier Global Co. announced plans to invest more than $600 million over the next three years in a new advanced manufacturing and engineering center in Fort Worth, Texas, which is expected to create 1,500 jobs and expand commercial chiller production to meet record backlog levels driven by strong demand across data centers, healthcare, and industrial markets.
  • The company reported third-quarter earnings on July 28, 2026, with earnings per share of $0.86, which exceeded the consensus estimate of $0.82 by $0.04, while revenue of $6.35 billion also surpassed analyst expectations of $6.02 billion, demonstrating strong operational performance and revenue growth of 3.9% compared to the same quarter last year.
  • Carrier Global Co. currently trades at a stock price of $56.06, which is significantly below the average analyst price target of $70.43, suggesting potential upside for investors as the consensus rating remains a Moderate Buy with eleven analysts issuing Buy ratings and ten issuing Hold ratings.
  • Institutional investors have shown increased confidence in the stock, with Citizens Financial Group Inc. RI growing its stake by 126.7% during the third quarter and Yousif Capital Management LLC raising its stake by 34.2%, indicating that professional investors are accumulating shares of Carrier Global Co.
  • The company offers a dividend yield of 1.71% with a quarterly dividend of $0.24 per share, providing a steady income stream for investors, supported by a payout ratio of 66.67% which indicates a sustainable level of dividend distribution relative to earnings.

Carrier Global
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Carrier Global Co. for these reasons:

  • Carrier Global Co. has a price-to-earnings ratio of 38.93, which is relatively high compared to the broader market, suggesting that the stock may be overvalued relative to its current earnings, and the stock price of $56.06 is down 1.78 from the previous close of $57.83, indicating recent downward price pressure.
  • The stock is trading below its 200-day simple moving average of $61.67 and its 50-day simple moving average of $56.95, which can be a technical indicator of a bearish trend, and the stock is currently near its 52-week low of $50.24, suggesting significant recent weakness in the share price.
  • Short interest in Carrier Global Co. has increased, with shares shorted rising to 18,201,336 as of October 15, 2026, up from 15,860,118 in the previous month, indicating that a growing number of investors are betting against the stock, and the days to cover has increased to 3.79, suggesting potential for a short squeeze if the stock price rises.
  • Carrier Global Co. has a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.77, which indicates a moderate level of financial leverage, and the company's quick ratio of 0.72 suggests that it may have limited liquidity to cover its short-term obligations, which could be a concern for investors if economic conditions deteriorate.
  • The company's earnings per share for the current fiscal year is forecast to be $2.87, which is lower than the $2.90 preannouncement for FY 2026, and the stock's beta of 1.29 indicates that it is more volatile than the overall market, which could result in larger price swings for investors.
