On May 27, Mizuho raised its price recommendation on Chord Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:CHRD) to $175 from $164. It reiterated an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm believes the impact of the Iran crisis on global oil prices and refining margins could last longer than previously expected. As a result, Mizuho increased its 2026 oil price outlook by 25% and its 2027 forecast by 6%. The firm also raised its estimates for U.S. refining cracks by 61% and 51% for the same periods. The analyst said the recent pullback in stock valuations, despite higher commodity prices, has created an opportunity for investors looking to generate “alpha” in the U.S. oil and gas sector. Mizuho also updated ratings and price targets across its coverage group.

Earlier, on May 8, Truist lowered its price goal on Chord Energy to $185 from $187. It maintained a Buy rating on the shares.

1. The Gap, Inc. (NYSE:GAP)

Analyst Upside Potential as of May 29: 36.6%

Dividend Yield as of May 29: 3.40%

Jefferies on May 29 lowered its price target on The Gap, Inc. (NYSE:GAP) to $29 from $32 while maintaining a Buy rating on the shares. In a post-earnings note, the analyst said near-term sales expectations have been revised lower, though margin discipline and brand reinvigoration under Richard Dickson continue to support a “constructive long-term view.”

BofA also adjusted its outlook on May 29, cutting its price target on Gap to $26 from $29 and reiterating a Neutral rating. The firm pointed to improving momentum at the Gap brand, though that strength was offset by a first-quarter comparable sales miss at Old Navy and a weaker outlook for the second quarter. The analyst said the firm’s valuation multiple was reduced to reflect the sales underperformance at Old Navy. While “encouraged” by the positive total company comps, the firm remains concerned that the lower-end customer could be pressured by higher gas prices.

The Gap, Inc. (NYSE:GAP) is a specialty apparel company in America. The company sells apparel, accessories, and personal care products for men, women, and children through its Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic, and Athleta brands.
