# Weekly Recap | NU Holdings -1.92%, most brokers rate it buy

## The Week

NU Holdings (NU) closed the week at $14.30, down 1.92% from the prior close of $14.58. The S&P 500 advanced 0.49% over the same stretch, leaving NU roughly 2.41 percentage points behind the benchmark. The stock climbed from Monday through Wednesday, touching a high of $15.42 intraday on 26 August, then pulled back on Thursday and fell further on Friday on heavier volume, finishing near the low of the week at $14.22. The weekly range was 8.33%, with average daily turnover about 10% below the 60-day median.

## Key Events

The main headline this week was the disclosure on 27 August that Chief Growth Officer Cristina Junqueira had sold roughly $1.33 million worth of NU common shares. Same-day filings showed similar disclosures linked to other executives or related parties, including Anita M Sands and Douglas M Leone. Meanwhile, coverage around the earnings call highlighted a profit surge, echoing the earnings improvement signalled earlier. The story of the week centred on insider selling and the continuation of earnings communication, with sentiment turning cautious after the mid-week rally.

## Analyst Ratings

As of the latest data, 22 firms cover NU Holdings: 13 rate it buy, 5 overweight, 3 hold, 1 underweight, and none sell or express no opinion. The consensus rating is buy, with a consensus target of $18.78, about 31.34% above the current price of $14.30. Target prices range from $10.00 to $23.00, a wide spread that points to notable disagreement among analysts. NU ranks 6th within its industry group of 60 companies.

## The Week Ahead

The macro calendar is busy next week: the Dallas Fed manufacturing business activity index arrives on Monday, 31 August; S&P Global manufacturing PMI final, ISM manufacturing PMI and US JOLTS job openings follow on Tuesday, 1 September; ADP private payrolls, factory orders and EIA crude inventories land on Wednesday, 2 September. NU Holdings’ Q3 FY2026 results are scheduled for 12 November, with consensus estimates at $0.2216 EPS and $5.937 billion in revenue. Short-term sentiment may stay driven by macro data and rate expectations.

## In Short

The tension this week sits between a supportive sell-side setup and a wobblier tape. Most analysts rate NU buy or overweight, with a consensus target about 30% above spot, yet the $10-to-$23 target range reveals real disagreement. The stock rallied early, then faded into Friday’s close as the latest session showed large and extra-large orders turning net sellers. Valuation sits near 19x P/E and about 5.25x book. The next leg hinges on macro prints and whether the recent insider selling marks a one-off or the start of a longer pattern, with $14 as the line to watch.
