Eagle Materials (EXP) stock plummeted 5.55% during intraday trading on Wednesday, as the building materials company faced a sell-off following the release of analyst research notes.
The price movement comes amid mixed analyst actions on the stock. While JP Morgan raised its price target on Eagle Materials to $225 from $215 and RBC increased its target to $219 from $208, Stephens & Co. cut its price target to $225 from $235 while maintaining an Equal Weight rating on the shares.
The downward revision from Stephens appears to have outweighed the positive adjustments from other firms, contributing to the stock's significant decline during the trading session.
