Descending
NEUTRAL IMPACT
Dollar General has received mostly indifferent ratings from analysts, with a downward revision in the average price target. The company's financials show moderate revenue growth but concerns with ROE, ROA, and high debt levels.
The majority of analysts have an indifferent stance on DG, indicating a neutral short-term impact on the stock price. The decrease in the average price target could suggest a tempered outlook, but the lack of strongly bearish ratings and the moderate revenue growth may prevent significant negative movement. The high debt-to-equity ratio is a concern, but it is not a new development and may already be factored into the current stock price.
