Deutsche Bank analyst Melissa Weathers upgraded Applied Materials (NASDAQ: AMAT) from Hold to Buy with a price target of $390.00 (from $275.00).

“We upgrade AMAT to a Buy rating and $390 P/T. With this note, we are raising our estimates for AMAT to reflect a much more constructive WFE environment entering 2026 and 2027.

Our out-year estimates now stand ~10% above Street, with potential upside risk.

In addition, we view the co’s current discount valuation to semicap peers as overdone, and see potential for this valuation gap to shrink going forward.”
