NEUTRAL IMPACT
Southwest Airlines has a diverse range of analyst ratings with a slight decrease in the average price target. The company's strong financial performance may counterbalance the lowered price targets.
The mixed analyst ratings and slight decrease in the average price target suggest uncertainty, which could lead to a neutral short-term impact on LUV's stock price. However, the company's strong financial indicators, such as revenue growth and net margin, may provide a positive counterweight to any negative sentiment from lowered price targets.
