Tractor Supply (TSCO) Receives a Buy from Wells Fargo


Wells Fargo analyst Zachary Fadem maintained a Buy rating on Tractor Supply (TSCO) today and set a price target of $115. The company’s shares opened today at $99.26.

Fadem observed:

“We have long been fans of the TSCO model (+MSD comps, white space, staples-like assortment, growing capital deployment) and believe today’s transparency adds additional comfort that NT targets are achievable and LT initiatives have legs. Thus, we would use recent tariff-driven uncertainty (-3% since 5/10 vs. -1% SPX) as an opportunity to be more involved in a growing, best-in-class operator, with a multi-year runway for continued growth. Reiterate Outperform.”

According to TipRanks.com, Fadem is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 10.4% and a 64.5% success rate. Fadem covers the Services sector, focusing on stocks such as National Vision Holdings Inc, Floor & Decor Holdings Inc, and Advance Auto Parts.
