Yum! Brands price target lowered to $174 from $176 at Baird Baird analyst David Tarantino lowered the firm's price target on Yum! Brands to $174 from $176 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. With the probabilities of an economic slowdown seemingly rising following the "shock" of last week's tariff announcement, Baird lowered estimates and price targets for the restaurants. It still believes exposure to restaurants remains appropriate, but is "dialing up" a preference for franchisors and keeps Outperform ratings on the businesses it thinks would be positioned to perform reasonably well in a downturn scenario. Baird moved to the sidelines on Portillo's and Starbucks. https://thefly.com - 6 days ago
