# Weekly Recap | TJX +0.97%, most brokers rate it buy

## The Week

TJX rose 0.97% this week to $127.24, outperforming the S&P 500 by about 1.05 percentage points (the benchmark slipped 0.08%). The week was choppy: shares opened Monday at $126.88, drifted lower through Tuesday and Wednesday, and touched a week low of $122.78 on Wednesday. The stock then turned higher on Thursday and accelerated on Friday, hitting an intraday high of $129.47 before closing near the top of the weekly range. The session pattern was one of early weakness followed by a late-week push back above $127.

## Key Events

Company news this week centred on the dividend and governance. TJX declared a quarterly common dividend of $0.48 per share, payable 3 December 2026, and elected Craig A. Pintoff to the board of directors, followed by a Form 3 initial beneficial ownership filing on Friday. On the share-register side, Bank of America Corp DE disclosed a purchase of roughly 23.18m TJX shares. Goldman Sachs and BofA both reiterated buy ratings during the week, with Goldman flagging soft Q3 sales guidance as a concern while treating the operational missteps as transitory. The stock made a 52-week low midweek, then rebounded sharply, closing up 3.01% on Thursday.

## Analyst Ratings

Among 23 institutions covering TJX, 13 rate it buy, 5 rate it over, 4 rate it hold, and 1 has no opinion; none rate it under or sell. The consensus rating is buy, with a consensus target of $169.80, about 33.4% above the last close of $127.24. Targets range from $136 to $198, so the spread is fairly wide. Within the apparel retailers industry, TJX ranks first out of 35 names by analyst rating.

## The Week Ahead

Macro data dominates the coming week, including the Richmond Fed composite index on 22 September, EIA crude inventories on 23 September, and initial jobless claims plus the current account balance on 24 September. On the company side, the next earnings print does not arrive until 18 November, when TJX reports fiscal 2027 Q3 results; consensus expects EPS of $1.3607 on revenue of $15.9bn. Whether the soft Q3 sales guidance holds up will be the key test.

## In Short

TJX spent the week caught between two forces. Analysts remain constructive: the consensus rating is buy, the consensus target sits more than 33% above spot, and the stock ranks first in its industry. At the same time, the stock carved out a 52-week low midweek, and concern over soft Q3 guidance has not fully cleared. On valuation, the stock trades near 23x earnings, and this week’s close remains below both the 20-day average of $131.218 and the 60-day average of $146.541. The question for the weeks ahead is whether the late-week rebound can hold on rising volume and whether November’s report stabilises the guidance narrative.
