Hartford Insurance Group has drawn price targets from several research firms clustering around US$150, aligning with a model fair value estimate of US$150.85. Goldman Sachs, Keefe Bruyette, Wells Fargo, Cantor Fitzgerald, Citi, Morgan Stanley and UBS have raised targets to the US$150-160 range, citing confidence in Hartford's underwriting and pricing execution.
