LSEG's Share Price Likely to Reflect AI Discount in Near-Term -- Market Talk
Dow Jones2026/10/08 08:410840 GMT - London Stock Exchange Group investors will likely want to see the exchange owner monetizing increased artificial-intelligence adoption by clients, UBS analysts write. They add that expectations on this front are low in the near-term given management's commentary at the first half-year earnings. "We expect LSEG will remain a 'Show Me' story with investors which means its share price will likely reflect a material AI discount in the near-term," the analysts say. UBS has a buy rating on the stock and 117.00 pound target price. Shares are up 2.2% at 84.96 pounds, but 5.1% lower over the year to date.
