Wall Street has set ambitious price targets for the stocks in this article. While this suggests attractive upside potential, it’s important to remain skeptical because analysts face institutional pressures that can sometimes lead to overly optimistic forecasts.
Unlike the investment banks, we created StockStory to provide independent analysis that helps you determine which companies are truly worth following. Keeping that in mind, here are three stocks likely to meet or exceed Wall Street’s lofty expectations.
Toast (TOST)
Consensus Price Target: $38.92 (26.7% implied return)
Born from the frustrations of three friends waiting too long for their restaurant bill, Toast (NYSE:TOST) provides a cloud-based digital technology platform with software, payment processing, and hardware solutions built specifically for restaurants.
Why Could TOST Be a Winner?
- Ability to secure long-term commitments with customers is evident in its 26.5% ARR growth over the last year
- Projected revenue growth of 19.9% for the next 12 months suggests its momentum from the last two years will persist
