Idex Corp. price target lowered to $191 from $204 at Stifel

Stifel lowered the firm’s price target on Idex Corp. (IEX) to $191 from $204 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. After significant uncertainty in the global macro economy post April 2, the biggest adjustment the firm has seen for its industrial companies is an increase in pricing, which has been almost exclusively passed through to customers with little resistance, says the analyst, who thinks on average that tariffs have so far been slightly accretive to EPS among the firm’s diversified industrials coverage.
