Is BigBear.ai Stock Going to $7? 1 Wall Street Analyst Thinks So.

One of the more assertive analyst price target raises happened at nearly the end of 2024. The affected company was artificial intelligence (AI) specialist BigBear.ai (NYSE: BBAI), which popped to a more than one-year high on the news. Is that fresh burst of optimism justified?

The analyst is particularly impressed by BigBear.ai’s ability to draw revenue from a diverse range of clients, according to reports.

But that’s what happens with hot segments; investors rush in on even the slightest hint of good news. That said, management seems to be making sensible moves and it’s clearly effective at gaining (and retaining) major clients. As such, it’s probably worth considering as a buy, but investors should be prepared for a bumpy ride.
