Masco upgraded to buy with 10% upside, backed by stable earnings and tariff refunds.

Masco Corporation has been upgraded to a buy rating due to its resilience in a tough macroeconomic and housing market environment. The company's 89% exposure to repair and remodel work helps shield it from volatility in new construction, supporting stable earnings. Masco's strong Q2 performance was boosted by $95 million in tariff refunds, while its core earnings guidance remains steady with a 2027 EPS target of around $4.50. With a solid balance sheet, ongoing share buybacks, and a valuation multiple of 17x, Masco offers approximately 10% upside to a $75 price target.

Masco's limited exposure to new construction is noted here with Pluang's Consumer Cyclical sector data as context. Of 112 priced US stocks in this sector on Pluang, 46 rose and 65 fell as of Oct 01, 2026 02:31 WIB. General Motors traded at USD 77.18 with a 1-day change of -4.09%, Crocs at USD 117.77 down 3.96%, and GameStop at USD 24.69 up 3.91%.
