On Wednesday, top raters at the Vetr community have decided to upgrade their rating on shares of the famed retailer, from 4.0 Stars (Buy) to 4.5 Stars (Strong Buy) - out of a possible 5.0 Stars rating.

The new rating seems more aligned with the crowd’s target price of $73.26, which implies a 15.6 percent upside potential from current valuations. Also in line with the target and new rating from the top raters, the crowd has issued 72 percent bullish ratings.
