Pershing Square Inc. shares fell 12.12% to $47.65 on Tuesday. The primary driver was a second consecutive downgrade, with Bank of America Securities cutting its recommendation to Underperform and lowering its price target to $38.

What Happened

Bank of America Securities downgraded Pershing Square from Neutral to Underperform, reducing its price objective from $54.00 to $38.00. The firm lowered its earnings estimates for 2026 through 2028, citing a delay in the launch of the PSV fund. This action followed a downgrade from Citigroup, which moved the stock to Sell while maintaining a $45 price target. The stock was the largest decliner among U.S. markets on Tuesday.

The company has a market capitalization of $21.8 billion and a price-to-earnings ratio of 1574.3. Trailing twelve-month revenue increased 68.3%, while the net margin stands at 2.1% and the dividend yield is 0.75%. The stock trades within a 52-week range of $22.01 to $60.40.
