1- Progressive Corp (NYSE: PGR)

Few companies have reshaped auto insurance the way Progressive Corp has. Beyond being an early adopter of usage-based pricing and direct-to-consumer (DTC) sales, perhaps even more impressively, this company has managed to stay on the cutting edge in terms of operations — whether we’re talking about AI-powered claims processing or rolling out a comprehensive mobile app. Ahead of the company’s Q4 earnings call, some of Wall Street’s finest have revised their price targets upward.

  • Of the 12 analysts who track the stock, a full half rate it a Strong Buy. The remaining 6 ratings are split between 4 Buys and 2 Holds. See the ratings 
  • Notably, Roth MKM’s Harry Fong (a top 10% rated analyst)  doubled down on an earlier Strong Buy rating on February 25, while increasing his price target for PGR stock from $290 to $315.
  • Fong said they made their price target move to reflect the company's 2025/01 results, which saw a 22% Y/Y increase in total personal auto policies-in-force, which is consistent with the previous two months, the analyst told readers.
  • In addition, the combined ratio of 84.1% indicates that the company's underwriting is still outstanding, Fong noted.
  • Progressive Corp’s overall Zen Rating of B places it in the top 20% of stocks, based on 115 proprietary factors proven to correlate with outsized returns. 
  • Out of the 7 Component Grade ratings that form a Zen Rating, PGR excels when it comes to two — Momentum and Sentiment, in which it ranks in the top 9% and 15%, respectively. This indicates both the presence of a strong uptrend, as well as a positive trend when it comes to analyst estimates. (See all 7 Zen Component Grades here >)

2- Hasbro Inc (NASDAQ: HAS

From classic board games to blockbuster entertainment franchises, Hasbro is more than just a toy company. With brands like Monopoly, Transformers, and Dungeons & Dragons, Hasbro has built a business that spans generations and industries. Leveraging its intellectual property through licensing deals, gaming, and Hollywood partnerships, the company has transformed play into a multi-platform experience. With a tailwind from a strong quarterly report and a very hefty war chest, this entertainment titan will attempt to execute a bold strategic plan to significantly expand its reach in the years to come.
