Analysts have inched their average PulteGroup price target slightly lower to about $159, a trim of roughly $1, as they factor in a modestly higher discount rate and small tweaks to long term margin and P/E assumptions, while still pointing to constrained housing supply and potential macro improvement as key supports for the homebuilder.
