Stifel analyst Simon Yarmak has adjusted the price target for Host Hotels & Resorts (HST, Financial), reducing it from $20.50 to $17, while maintaining a Buy rating on the stock. This adjustment is attributed to a reassessment of the company's second-quarter projections, which have been lowered due to current weakening trends in the market.

Additionally, Stifel has revised its forecasts for the latter part of 2025 and into 2026. The decision to adjust these figures reflects ongoing uncertainties within the macroeconomic landscape, which are expected to impact Host Hotels' performance during this period.
