Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies shares are sliding as traders lock in recent gains and cut risk ahead of next week’s Q1 2026 earnings report. The selloff is also being driven by worries that guidance may disappoint after the stock’s strong run toward 52-week highs.
Adding to the pressure, JPMorgan trimmed its price target to $280, pointing to “choppy” demand in agricultural and international markets. Other analysts have echoed concerns that Wabtec’s valuation looks stretched, with the stock running into technical resistance near its recent peak levels.
