# Weekly Recap | Rocket +17.66%, consensus target below spot

## The Week

Rocket rose 17.66% this week to close at $15.06, while the S&P 500 slipped 2.68% — a relative outperformance of about 20.34 percentage points. The week was mostly one-directional: shares opened Monday at $13.05, pushed through $15 on Wednesday with heavier volume, pulled back to $14.82 on Thursday, and regained $15 on Friday. Weekly amplitude was 16.91%, and average daily volume of about 52.6m shares ran 54% above the 60-day median.

## Key Events

Two stories dominated the week. First, options activity was unusually heavy: reports across Tuesday to Friday flagged large call buying, with some contracts jumping more than 500% in a day, alongside an analyst upgrade that saw the stock climb 8.5%. Second, Rocket Mortgage President and CEO Jesse K. Bray disclosed the sale of $3.09m in common shares on Wednesday. On the macro side, Friday’s coverage noted housing stocks had rallied on tariff relief hopes before sentiment cooled; Rocket still outperformed peers that day despite closing lower.

## Analyst Ratings

Among 16 institutions covering Rocket, 5 rate it buy, 3 overweight, and 8 hold, with no underweight or sell ratings. The consensus rating is buy, and the consensus target of $14.75385 sits about 2.03% below the latest price of $15.06. The target range is $13 to $16, a wide spread. Rocket ranks first among 23 companies in the commercial and residential mortgage financing industry.

## The Week Ahead

The macro calendar is busy: US CPI and core CPI land on Tuesday, with core CPI forecast at 2.8% against a prior 2.6%. US wholesale sales data arrives Monday. On the company side, Rocket’s FY2026 annual results are scheduled for February 25, 2027 after market close, with estimates of $0.4852 EPS and $10.6bn revenue.

## In Short

Rocket had a stand-out week against a falling market, with volume well above trend and heavy options positioning — yet the consensus target now sits below the latest close, and a senior executive trimmed shares mid-week. The tension between strong price momentum and softer signals from ratings and insider activity leaves next week’s CPI and the run-up to the annual report as the key tests.
