Wall Street sets Rivian (RIVN) stock price for the next 12 months

Rivian (NASDAQ: RIVN) has faced several challenges over the past year, including the need to conserve cash, layoffs, and mounting costs. 

But the company’s shares edged higher in after-hours trading Tuesday, May 8, after it announced its Q1 loss was narrower than anticipated and reiterated its production target for 2023 of 50,000 vehicles. 

Meanwhile, based on 24 analyst views in the past three months, RIVN is currently rated as a ‘Buy’ on TradingView. Notably, 12 financial experts are advising a ‘Strong Buy,’ 2 recommending a ‘Buy,’ and 8 believe the stock is a ‘Hold.’ Only 2 analysts rated the stock as a ‘Sell’ and ‘Strong Sell.’

For the following 12 months, RIVN is expected to reach an average price target of $24.35, based on forecasts from 20 experts on Wall Street. This marks a potential upside of more than 75% from the stock’s current levels.
