Ross Stores To Rally More Than 17%? Here Are 10 Top Analyst Forecasts For Tuesday

B of A Securities analyst Robert Ohmes maintains Dollar Tree (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLTR#NASDAQ">DLTR</a>) with a Underperform and lowers the price target from $75 to $70.

B of A Securities Maintains Underperform on Dollar Tree, Lowers Price Target to $70

Discount retailer Dollar Tree Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLTR#NASDAQ">DLTR</a>) was riding high on Monday, ending the day up 7.8% following a surprise upgrade by Citi Research, which calls it one of the &#8216;silent beneficiaries&#8217; of the widespread trade tariffs imposed by the U.S. Government over the past week.
What Happened: In a somewhat surprising move, Citigroup analysts upgraded Dollar Tree to a &#8216;Buy&#8217; from their earlier &#8216;Neutral&#8217; stance. With a new price target of $103, which represents a 41% upside following its rally on Monday.
The move is surprising because, on the face of it, Dollar Tree seems one of the most exposed to the downsides of the tariffs. Especially, the mammoth 34% reciprocal rates imposed on China, from where it imports an estimated 40% of its merchandise, according to a recent analysis by KeyBanc Capital Markets.

The management itself <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42402629/trump-to-change-dollar-stores-for-good-dollar-tree-exec-says-prepared-to-act">commented late last year</a> that it would have to change product specs, pack sizes, and even phase out certain items if the tariffs were reimposed by the new administration.
However, Citi analysts led by Paul Lejuez believe that the higher tariff regime could provide the company with much-needed cover to increase its prices from the standard $1.25 to $1.50 or even $1.75, significantly boosting margins, and without any blowback since it comes at a time when everyone else will be raising prices.
Why It Matters: The Analysts further believe that the tariffs will hit the company&#8217;s rivals much harder, particularly the likes of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42780039/amazons-chinese-rivals-temu-and-shein-got-hit-hard-by-tariffs-in-this-country-is-it-a-sign-of-things-to-come-under-trump">Temu and Shein</a>, and a recession in the coming months should make Dollar Tree&#8217;s value credentials a lot more attractive among consumers. 
Besides this, the company&#8217;s decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/03/44505050/dollar-tree-sells-family-dollar-for-1-billion-truly-addition-by-subtraction-analyst-says">sell its Family Dollar segment for $1 billion</a> less than 2 weeks ago led to a broad bullish consensus among most analysts. The sale of the segment that was referred to by Evercore ISI analysts as &#8216;truly addition by subtraction.&#8217;
The average price consensus for the stock now stands at $82.85, with Citi at the high point of $103, which is rather impressive considering current market conditions.

Apple To $250? Here Are 10 Top Analyst Forecasts For Monday

A chaotic and volatile session kicked off the new week on Wall Street, with a start that offers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">little reason for optimism.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 opened with a gap below 4,900 points, then fiercely rebounded in the first hour of trading before the gains swiftly evaporated. Sentiment further deteriorated after Donald Trump adopted a more aggressive tone toward China.
On Truth Social, Trump stated that China had imposed retaliatory tariffs of 34%, on top of what he described as already record-setting tariffs, despite prior warnings that such measures would be met with significantly higher U.S. tariffs. He added that if China did not reverse the 34% hike by April 8, the United States would respond with additional tariffs of 50%, effective the following day.
He also indicated that all discussions with China regarding their requested meetings would be terminated, while negotiations with other countries that had expressed interest in talks would begin immediately.
The European Union signaled openness to implementing a zero-for-zero tariff agreement on industrial goods with the United States.
By 12:40 p.m. ET, the S&amp;P 500 was down 0.8%, the Nasdaq 100 fell 0.2%, and the Dow dropped 1.4%. Every sector remained in the red, with real estate and materials leading the losses.
In commodities, gold slipped 1.2%, heading for its third consecutive session of declines, while oil prices fell 2.3% to $60 a barrel, now down 16% from last week&#8217;s highs.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), which had been spared from last week&#8217;s global market rout, joined the bloodbath over the weekend, dropping 6.4% on Sunday and holding at $78,000 on Monday.

Shares of companies within retail, apparel, and e-commerce industries are trading lower amid heavy selling pressure as markets react to President Trump's tariff announcements, which may hamper consumer spending.

The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), which tracks the S&amp;P 500, is facing heavy selling pressure in Wednesday&#8217;s after-hours session following reciprocal tariffs<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44618089/trumps-tariffs-surprise-triggers-carnage-magnificent-7-set-to-wipe-out-nearly-700-billion-in-market-value"> from the Trump Administration</a>.

Shares of consumer staples stocks are trading higher as tariffs uncertainty may be driving a shift towards defensive stocks.

Dollar Tree Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLTR#NASDAQ">DLTR</a>) shares are trading higher by 5% to $73.00 over the trailing week. The company last week announced that it is selling its struggling Family Dollar segment to Brigade Capital Management and Macellum Capital Management for $1.007 billion. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/03/44505050/dollar-tree-sells-family-dollar-for-1-billion-truly-addition-by-subtraction-analyst-says">deal</a> is expected to close in late 2025.
What To Know: Although Dollar Tree anticipates a 30 to 35-cent earnings hit per share from the sale, executives expressed optimism about refocusing solely on its core Dollar Tree brand.&nbsp;
CEO Mike Creedon emphasized that separating the businesses would enable better management and operational focus, positioning Dollar Tree for stronger growth and profitability.
Analysts largely <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/03/44505050/dollar-tree-sells-family-dollar-for-1-billion-truly-addition-by-subtraction-analyst-says">supported the move</a>, with Evercore ISI calling it "addition by subtraction" and Truist Securities raising its price target from $76 to $84.

Despite potential short-term challenges, Telsey Advisory Group and BMO Capital Markets also acknowledged the long-term benefits.
What Else: The company's fourth-quarter earnings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/earnings-beats/25/03/44519293/dollar-tree-rides-high-on-strong-q4-streamlined-focus-solid-sales-momentum">exceeded expectations</a>, with revenue of $8.26 billion and an adjusted EPS of $2.29. Same-store sales for Dollar Tree increased by 2%, and the company opened 33 new stores in the quarter.&nbsp;
Looking ahead, Dollar Tree projects fiscal 2025 revenue between $18.5 billion and $19.1 billion, with same-store sales growth of 3% to 5%.

Investors can gain exposure to&nbsp;DLTR by&nbsp;investing&nbsp;in the Invesco S&amp;P 500 Equal Weight Consumer Staples ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RSPS#NASDAQ">RSPS</a>).
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy DLTR Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Dollar Tree&#8217;s case, it is in the Consumer Staples sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, DLTR has a 52-week high of $137.14 and a 52-week low of $60.49.

What's Going On With Dollar Tree (DLTR) Stock?

The stock of Dollar Tree, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLTR#NASDAQ">DLTR</a>) is trading lower Friday. This follows yesterday's gain of more than 11%. The move was driven by the company's announcement that it will be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/earnings-beats/25/03/44519293/dollar-tree-rides-high-on-strong-q4-streamlined-focus-solid-sales-momentum">selling its Family Dollar division</a>.
The stock could set up for a tradeable move. Traders are watching it closely. This is why our team of trading experts has made it the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-of-the-day">Stock of the Day</a>.
As you can see on the chart below, the move higher yesterday ended when the stock reached levels around $76.70. This has been resistance since September.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="582" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/28142355/one-1024x582.png" alt="" class="wp-image-847561" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/28142355/one-1024x582.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/28142355/one-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/28142355/one-768x437.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/28142355/one.png 1437w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Resistance levels can stay intact for an extended period of time due to remorseful buyers. These are people who purchased shares at the resistance that regretted doing so when the price dropped after.
Some of them decided to hold onto their losing positions, but they also decided that if they can eventually get out at breakeven they would. As a result when Dollar Tree rallied back up to their buy price they placed sell orders.
There were so many of these sell orders that it formed resistance around the same levels that had been resistance before.
Sometimes stocks reverse and head lower after they reach resistance. This happens when some of the traders and investors who created the resistance become concerned that other sellers will be willing to sell at lower prices.
These concerned sellers don't want to miss the trade so they decided to reduce the prices they are willing to sell at. Other worried sellers see this and do the same thing. It can result in a snowball effect that forces the price lower.
This is what happened each time Dollar Tree reached this resistance since September.
But sometimes when a stock reaches resistance, the buyers eventually overpower the sellers. This breaks the resistance and sets the stage for a move higher. With the sellers out of the way, buyers will be forced to bid premiums to bring them back into the market and this could force the shares into an uptrend.
Traders are watching Dollar Tree closely. They don't know which way the stock will move, but they are confident that it will. When it becomes apparent which way it will trend, they will position themselves accordingly.

Stock Of The Day: Will Dollar Tree Head North Or South?

Dollar Tree's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLTR#NYSE">DLTR</a>) short percent of float has risen 15.1% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 12.84 million shares sold short, which is 7.24% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.36 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Dollar Tree Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743176727_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Dollar Tree has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Dollar Tree's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Dollar Tree's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.93%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
