Kering posts a sharp decline this Monday, in a CAC 40 that nevertheless advances by nearly 1%. The luxury group's stock is facing renewed pressure, as two research firms revised their price targets this morning.
Two target revisions on Monday, with targets far from current price
Oddo BHF and BNP Paribas Exane both published updated opinions on Kering this Monday. Oddo BHF raised its target from 255 to 272 €, while maintaining a neutral view on the stock. BNP Paribas Exane moves in the opposite direction and lowered its target from 285 to 280 €, also with a neutral opinion.
These two targets remain significantly above the current price of 226.25 €, which represents a theoretical upside potential of approximately 20% and 24% respectively from current levels.

This configuration maintains underlying downward pressure, accentuated by a performance of -9.72% over the month.
The RSI at 38 reflects a selling regime without being in outright oversold territory, which signals that the downward momentum remains present without a clear technical exhaustion signal. The support level identified by available indicators stands at 232.25 €, a level that the price has already clearly broken, testifying to the magnitude of the current decline.
