Ollie's Bargain Outlet Holdings shares rose 7% Monday after JPMorgan upgraded the retailer to "overweight" from "neutral" as growth may benefit from "lateral competitive disruption opportunity."
The stock was recently at $94.35 and is up about 24% this year.
The bank established a December 2025 price target of $105 for Ollie's.
JPMorgan said potential closings of Big Lots stores could result in real-estate opportunities for Ollie's and said the bank's "fieldwork points to OLLI's 2QTD trending above its guidance."
