Gartner shares plunge 64% in a year amid slowing growth and macro uncertainty.

Gartner's stock has dropped 64.38% over the past year due to slowing contract value growth and geopolitical uncertainties, particularly linked to the Iran conflict. Wells Fargo lowered its price target to $140, citing decelerating subscription renewals and competitive pressures in its Digital Markets segment. Despite aggressive share buybacks, the stock faces challenges unless contract value growth accelerates in 2026 as management expects. Investors should be cautious given the ongoing macro risks and the potential for further declines before any recovery.
