Stanley Black & Decker has made significant moves recently. The multinational corporation announced the selling of its Consolidated Aerospace Manufacturing Business to Howmet Aerospace for $1.8 billion. After the divestiture, Baird raised its target for SWK. The company also witnessed a decrease in short interest by 16.3%. The recent transactions have led to a rise in the stock value, creating a positive momentum. Apart from this, the company recently had a leadership transition. The 3Q 2025 results were out with Stanley Black & Decker experiencing a stock surge on their announcement.
A deal with Howmet has brought about positive speculation amongst shareholders, according to Jim Cramer. Amidst these developments, Stanley Black & Decker's shares were acquired by Fort Washington Investment Advisors Inc.. UBS has reaffirmed its buy rating and increased its target for SWK, noting its proactive measures to address leverage ahead of potential green shoots. However, challenges persist for SWK with operational gains and gross margin progress testing investor interest in light of a $525.6 Million one-off loss.
