On January 16, BofA analyst Rafe Jadrosich raised the firm’s price target on KB Home (NYSE:KBH) to $63 from $58 while maintaining a Neutral rating on the shares.

BofA expects weaker employment and migration trends, persistent inflation, and a more competitive selling environment driven by elevated new and resale inventory to make 2026 a “reset year” for the sector.
