Baird and Barclays recently raised their price targets for Illinois Tool Works (ITW), maintaining a neutral rating and an underweight rating, respectively. However, their bullish outlook is countered by the selling of significant shares by Pamela Strobel and certain financial institutions. Despite its modest sales below analyst estimates in Q3, ITW's investors have achieved a 24% return over the last three years. Notable institutional ownership (around 84%) and increased stock positions by firms such as Assetmark Inc. and Andra AP fonden suggest confidence in ITW. Although ITW's growth outlook may be slowing, it has seen margin expansion that reinforces its quality narrative. Bullish predictions for the company's FY2025 earnings have been made by Zacks Research. However, share price dips have prompted a fresh look at ITW's valuation.
