Citigroup Declines as Truist Raises Price Target
Citigroup (NYSE: C) shares fell 2.2% on Friday despite Truist Financial raising its price target on the bank to *$158 from $147* and reiterating its *Buy* rating.
The higher target reflects Truist's growing confidence in Citigroup's ongoing transformation, with the firm expecting continued progress in operational efficiency, capital returns, and earnings growth. The maintained Buy rating underscores its positive long-term view despite recent market volatility.
While the rating update failed to lift the stock during Friday's session, the increased price target suggests analysts see meaningful upside from current levels. The report highlights continued optimism that Citigroup's restructuring efforts and improving profitability will support shareholder returns over time.
