Lionsgate shares are under pressure as traders pile into bearish options, with heavy put buying and rising implied volatility signaling expectations of more downside. Investors also remain cautious ahead of the company’s earnings report on May 21, adding to the negative mood around the stock.
Despite the selling pressure, Wall Street’s view is not uniformly pessimistic, with Morgan Stanley lifting its price target to $14 and maintaining an Overweight rating. Other analysts have nudged their targets higher as well, though one trimmed its rating, citing GenAI risks even as the Street still sees long‑term value in Lionsgate’s proven franchises.
