What Happened?

Shares of fast-food pizza chain Domino’s (NYSE: DPZ) jumped 3.2% in the morning session after Guggenheim raised its price target on the stock to $490 from $485. 

While the investment firm increased its price outlook, it maintained a "Neutral" rating on the shares. The move signals a slightly more optimistic valuation for the pizza chain from the analyst, even without a full ratings upgrade. This adjustment comes amid a broader, more positive consensus from Wall Street. According to data from FactSet, the average analyst rating for Domino's is "overweight," with a mean price target of $513.70, suggesting that other analysts see more potential upside in the stock.

After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $453.54, up 0.5% from previous close.
