Looking at the underlying holdings of the ETFs in our coverage universe at ETF Channel, we have compared the trading price of each holding against the average analyst 12-month forward target price, and computed the weighted average implied analyst target price for the ETF itself. For the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (Symbol: RSP), we found that the implied analyst target price for the ETF based upon its underlying holdings is $201.20 per unit.
With RSP trading at a recent price near $182.76 per unit, that means that analysts see 10.09% upside for this ETF looking through to the average analyst targets of the underlying holdings. Three of RSP's underlying holdings with notable upside to their analyst target prices are Public Storage (Symbol: PSA), Best Buy Inc (Symbol: BBY), and Roper Technologies Inc (Symbol: ROP). Although PSA has traded at a recent price of $285.55/share, the average analyst target is 17.32% higher at $335.00/share. Similarly, BBY has 17.31% upside from the recent share price of $66.85 if the average analyst target price of $78.42/share is reached, and analysts on average are expecting ROP to reach a target price of $638.62/share, which is 17.13% above the recent price of $545.23.

Are analysts justified in these targets, or overly optimistic about where these stocks will be trading 12 months from now? Do the analysts have a valid justification for their targets, or are they behind the curve on recent company and industry developments? A high price target relative to a stock's trading price can reflect optimism about the future, but can also be a precursor to target price downgrades if the targets were a relic of the past. These are questions that require further investor research.

Detailed Analysis of ROPER TECHNOLOGIES INC
More Information on John Neff
About John Neff: While known as the manager with whom many top managers entrusted their own money, Neff was far from the smooth-talking, high-profile Wall Streeter you might expect. He was mild-mannered and low-key, and the same might be said of the Windsor Fund that he managed for more than three decades. In fact, Neff himself described the fund as "relatively prosaic, dull, [and] conservative." There was nothing dull about his results, however. From 1964 to 1995, Neff guided Windsor to a 13.7 percent average annual return, easily outpacing the S&P 500's 10.6 percent return during that time. That 3.1 percentage point difference is huge over time -- a $10,000 investment in Windsor (with dividends reinvested) at the start of Neff's tenure would have ended up as more than $564,000 by the time he retired, more than twice what the same investment in the S&P would have yielded (about $233,000). Considering the length of his tenure, that track record may be the best ever for a manager of such a large fund.
