The maintenance of a Neutral rating by Chardan Capital, accompanied by a specific price target, suggests a clear but moderate expectation for Li-Cycle Holdings' stock performance. The setting of a price target provides a quantifiable expectation for the stock's future price level, which can influence investor perception and potentially the stock's market price. However, the neutral stance indicates that the analyst sees neither significant upside nor downside risks in the near term, leading to a neutral impact on the stock price.
