PPG price target raised to $129 from $119 at RBC Capital
RBC Capital analyst Arun Viswanathan raised the firm's price target on PPG to $129 from $119 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares as part of a broader research note previewing Q2 results in Coatings. The firm notes that its recent discussions with Investor Relations teams suggest that raw material inflation will likely be milder than feared and inline with initial company expectations of low to mid single digits due to declining oil prices vs mid-April levels, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Demand remains choppy due to poor macro, though share gains are most likely to drive growth, the firm added.
