Erste Group analyst Hans Engel downgraded ASML's stock from Buy to Hold, citing 'downside risk to 2026 business outlook.' This action reflects growing concerns about the company's future growth trajectory.
The downgrade follows ASML's own cautious statements regarding its 2026 growth prospects, which it could not confirm due to increasing macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainties. The firm expects ASML's revenue and profit growth to be lower in 2026 compared to 2025.
This analyst action reinforces market scrutiny over ASML's ability to navigate external pressures and maintain its historical growth rates in the coming years, despite its technological leadership.
