Bank of America analyst Andrew Obin has revised the price target for Rockwell Automation (ROK, Financial), reducing it from $305 to $250. Despite maintaining a Neutral rating on the stock, this adjustment reflects increased caution due to prevailing uncertainties and tariff concerns.

The analysis comes in the context of BofA’s broader outlook for its Industrials/Multi-Industry sector coverage. The firm anticipates that first-quarter earnings will either meet or exceed expectations. However, given the ongoing volatility and the complexities surrounding tariffs, even with the recent 90-day suspension of reciprocal tariffs announced on April 9, the firm has preemptively adjusted its earnings estimates.
