PDD - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months.

Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in PDD Holdings Inc. for these reasons:

  • The company’s revenue of $97.06 billion fell short of analysts' expectations of $100.17 billion, which may raise concerns about its ability to meet future growth targets.
