Westlake: My Year-End 2025 Update Implies Difficult Macro
Summary Westlake (WLK) remains a HOLD, with excessive housing exposure and no clear catalysts for near-term recovery. WLK's fundamentals are solid, but negative earnings revisions and weak housing market limit upside; fair value cut to $52/share, PT to $44/share. Dividend is covered, but AEPS likely won't exceed payout until at least 2027E, and profitability lags sector averages. Alternatives like Cabot (CBT) offer better value and upside; WLK's risk/reward remains unattractive at current levels. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaAnalyse-Update • Nov 27

Westlake Corp.: Overvaluation Confirmed, What's Next?
Summary Westlake Corporation is a fundamentally strong chemical company with excellent vertical integration and management, but its current valuation is too high for a "Buy" rating. Despite its robust financials and market position, macroeconomic uncertainties and a low dividend yield make Westlake less attractive compared to peers like BASF. The company's performance metrics are impressive, but its forecasted earnings decline and limited upside potential justify a "Hold" rating with a target price of $100/share. Westlake's exposure to housing and infrastructure markets is promising, but the current market conditions and valuation risks outweigh the potential benefits for new investments.
