Jefferies downgrades Aritzia to hold after 20% rally, citing limited upside despite strong Q2 results.

Jefferies downgraded Canadian fashion retailer Aritzia from 'buy' to 'hold' after its shares surged over 20% following strong Q2 results, including 35% comparable sales growth and margin expansion. The broker lowered the price target to $160, noting that the stock now trades slightly above its historical valuation and that investors already price in continued growth and margin gains. While confident in Aritzia's business strength, including US expansion and a debt-free balance sheet, Jefferies sees limited upside ahead due to rising expectations and tougher sales comparisons in H2. The downgrade reflects a less attractive risk/reward balance rather than a negative view on the company's fundamentals.
