In anticipation of first-quarter results, Wedbush has adjusted its price target for Booking Holdings (BKNG, Financial), reducing it from $5,600 to $5,200. Despite this adjustment, the firm maintains an Outperform rating on the stock. The revision stems from growing economic uncertainty, influenced by macroeconomic concerns, possible tariff impacts, and declining consumer confidence both domestically and internationally.

Wedbush has broadly lowered its estimates and price targets for 2025 across the internet sector, responding to limited visibility and a potentially weaker demand environment. The firm anticipates forthcoming discussions with management teams to provide greater clarity on the situation, as they currently navigate these uncertain economic conditions.
