On June 3, Goldman Sachs analyst Joe Ritchie raised his price target on Honeywell International Inc. (NASDAQ:HON) to $276 from $258 and maintained a Buy rating on the shares. In a research note, Ritchie said Honeywell’s planned Aerospace separation remains on schedule for June 29. Following the spin-off, the automation business will operate as Honeywell Technologies, while the aerospace business will trade under the ticker HONA.
