Shares of MP Materials Corp (MP) plummeted 5.01% during Monday's intraday trading session, following news that Deutsche Bank has adjusted its price target for the company. The significant drop comes as investors react to the lowered expectations from a major financial institution.

Deutsche Bank revised its price target for MP Materials to $20, down from the previous target of $22, while maintaining a Hold rating on the stock. This adjustment suggests a more cautious outlook on the company's near-term prospects, potentially influencing investor sentiment and triggering a sell-off.

Despite the negative reaction to Deutsche Bank's move, it's worth noting that the overall analyst consensus on MP Materials remains relatively positive. According to FactSet, the average rating for the stock is overweight, with a mean price target of $26.70. This indicates that while some analysts are becoming more conservative in their estimates, there is still optimism about the company's long-term potential in the broader market.
