The mixed analyst ratings for VF Corporation indicate that there is no clear consensus on the stock's short-term direction. While the average price target of $26.6 implies an upside, the range of ratings from bullish to somewhat bearish suggests that the stock's performance may be influenced by other factors. The 2.98% increase in the average price target over the past month indicates a slightly positive sentiment, but it is not strong enough to confidently predict a short-term price increase.
