The S&P 500 rose 0.49% over the same stretch, leaving Celsius about 1.63 percentage points behind the benchmark. The week had a clear fade after an early push: shares opened Monday at $33.805 and finished that day at $35.03, then held above $35 on Tuesday and Wednesday, hitting a weekly high of $36.15 on Wednesday before Thursday and Friday pulled the stock back. Friday’s low was $32.12 before the close at $32.98, with weekly amplitude of 11.92%. ## Key Events Celsius had two stories running this week: brand expansion and a rating downgrade. On the company side, it announced a partnership with SoulCycle on Monday after the close, aimed at fitness communities across the US. On Wednesday, it added four college football standouts to its 2026 athlete roster. Both moves point to continued investment in distribution and audience growth. On the tape, the stock climbed nearly 4% during Monday’s regular session, around the same time the partnership news appeared. On Thursday, Deutsche Bank cut Celsius to hold from buy, and the stock dropped after the downgrade, with follow-through selling on Friday. The company’s own messaging skewed positive this week, while the second-half decline tracked closely with the broker action. ## Analyst Ratings Coverage of Celsius totals 24 firms. Of these, 12 rate it buy, 5 rate it overweight, and 7 rate it hold, with no underweight or sell ratings. The consensus recommendation is buy, with a consensus target of $42.29, about 28.22% above the spot price. Targets are widely spread, from a low of $26 to a high of $64, suggesting analysts disagree on the company’s longer-term range. Within the water and soft drinks industry, Celsius ranks 4th out of 16 names. Deutsche Bank’s move from buy to hold this week is the main change in the ratings picture. ## The Week Ahead Next week brings a busy macro calendar for US markets, including the Dallas Fed manufacturing index, the S&P Global manufacturing PMI final, the ISM manufacturing PMI, JOLTS job openings, and ADP employment data across different sessions. For a consumer name like Celsius, the PMI prints and labour-market data are worth watching because they can signal shifts in the broader spending environment. Beyond macro, the Deutsche Bank downgrade this week may keep attention on whether other brokers adjust their stances, though the next company earnings report is not yet on the calendar. ## In Short This week sets a positive company narrative against a more cautious tape. The SoulCycle tie-up and the expanded athlete roster continue Celsius’s established marketing playbook, while the Deutsche Bank downgrade was the clearest trigger for the stock’s second-half pressure. On valuation, Celsius trades at roughly 129.66x earnings and 7.06x book, levels that sit high, while the consensus target remains above spot. On the latest trading day, large-lot flows pointed toward net selling, matching the stock’s pullback late in the week. The next signals to watch are whether macro data shift the consumer backdrop and whether more brokers revise their ratings. *This article is generated by LongbridgeAI from market data, for information only and not investment advice.* ### Related Stocks - [CELH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CELH.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Celsius director Hal Kravitz acquires $336,000 in common shares](https://longbridge.com/en/news/299187707.md) - [Allianz Asset Management GmbH Cuts Holdings in Celsius Holdings Inc. $CELH](https://longbridge.com/en/news/298551361.md) - [Satya Nadella Says Xbox Is on Track for a Comeback After Major Layoffs — ‘I Feel Fantastic’ About Its Gaming IP](https://longbridge.com/en/news/300308967.md) - [Oil rebounds after Trump rejects Iran peace deal](https://longbridge.com/en/news/300229709.md) - [AI’s $1 Trillion Funding Problem Is Moving From Stocks to Bonds](https://longbridge.com/en/news/300336501.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
