Glencore - 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. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

The stock price recently increased to $8.82, reflecting positive market sentiment and potential for further growth.
Significant increase in short interest, rising by 851.6% in January, suggests that investors are betting on a price increase, which can indicate bullish sentiment.

Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Glencore plc for these reasons:

The stock has a 12-month high of $12.74, which may indicate that it is currently trading below its peak, suggesting potential volatility and risk of further declines.
With a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.69, while manageable, it indicates that the company has a significant amount of debt compared to its equity, which could pose risks in a downturn.
Recent trading volumes have been lower than average, which can indicate reduced investor interest and potential liquidity issues.
The quick ratio of 0.67 suggests that Glencore may have difficulty meeting its short-term liabilities, which could be a concern for investors focused on financial stability.
