SPGI
+2.18%
S&P Global (NYSE:SPGI) is one of the 12 oversold financial stocks to invest in according to hedge funds.
On February 12, the price target on S&P Global (NYSE:SPGI) was reduced from $601 to $482 by BMO Capital analyst Jeffrey Silber, who maintained an Outperform rating on the stock after its minor earnings miss in the fourth quarter. His revised estimates still offer almost 18% upside potential from the current level.

Silber noted that the company’s 2026 outlook was below consensus, primarily due to softer expectations for Market Intelligence and Ratings revenue growth, along with slightly weaker margins. Despite the tempered outlook, the analyst stated that current valuation levels offer an attractive entry point.
On February 11, Stifel analyst Shlomo Rosenbaum maintained his Buy rating on S&P Global (NYSE:SPGI). The analyst lowered the price target from $599 to $489, which now results in an upside potential of over 19%. Even though the latest quarterly figures and 2026 guidance missed expectations, the analyst attributed the recent bearish trend in share price to ongoing AI-linked skepticism.
Rosenbaum views it as “a narrative that is tough to fight,” characterized with market’s overreaction. He acknowledged the impact of such sentiment, as it makes it more difficult for the stock to gain momentum in the short term.
S&P Global (NYSE:SPGI) is a provider of benchmarking solutions, financial intelligence, data & analytics, and ratings covering automotive, commodity, energy, and capital markets across the globe. The business is structured around 5 distinct segments, i.e., S&P Global Market Intelligence, S&P Global Ratings, S&P Global Energy, S&P Global Mobility, and S&P Dow Jones Indices.
While we acknowledge the potential of SPGI as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
