Why Are Albemarle Shares Trading Lower Tuesday?
Jul 9, 2024 12:59 PM

Albemarle Corporation ( ALB ) shares are trading lower Tuesday after recent analyst actions. Baird maintained an Outperform rating on Albemarle but significantly lowered its price target from $170 to $127.

Additionally, Oppenheimer also maintained an Outperform rating on the stock but trimmed its price target to $178 from $188 to reflect spot price movements, with index contracts likely to pressure pricing. The firm noted that with lithium prices returning to declines in June, it sees the possibility of a guidance cut. This led to Oppenheimer lowering its FY24 estimates for revenue, adjusted EBITDA and EPS.

ALB Price Action: Albemarle Shares were down by 7.88% at 91.34 at the time of writing, according to Benzinga Pro.
