Why is Lithium Argentina Dropping Today?

Lithium Argentina AG (NYSE:LAR)

Shares of LAR have moved lower on the back of fresh analyst downgrades, although a major lithium project approval in Argentina provides a longer-term sector boost.

  • Analyst EPS cuts:
    • Cormark lowered its FY2026 earnings estimate to $0.14 per share (from $0.19).
    • Stifel Canada trimmed its FY2026 EPS forecast to $0.19 (down from $0.24).
  • Price target reduction: Scotiabank cut its target on LAR to $3.00 from $3.50 but kept a “sector outperform” rating.
  • Sector catalyst: Argentina approved a $2.5 billion Rio Tinto lithium mining project, underscoring strong regional demand for lithium supplies.

In sum, LAR’s shares are under pressure today due to lower earnings forecasts and a reduced price target, even as industry momentum in Argentina improves the outlook for lithium producers.
