Stifel Canada on Tuesday upgraded its rating on the shares of Dollarama (DOL.TO) to buy from hold while raising its price target to C$190.00 from C$180.00 following a dip in the company's shares."Dollarama's shares are near a 52-week low, which presents investors with an appealing entry point in our view. We are changing our recommendation to BUY for the following reasons: (1) Valuation has receded from the highs of 39x forward earnings in January 2026 and now at 29.5x, stands below the 2-year average of 33x. (2) Dollarama is likely to gain market share under a potential scenario of significant inflation in the coming year stemming from the conflict in Iran. In order to stretch their dollars further Canadians are likely to shop more at Dollarama. (3) Recent insider buying is reassuring. Both the CFO and CEO recently purchased shares at $174 and $175, respectively, higher levels than currently. Hence, with a more reasonable valuation and potential for Dollarama to gain market share due to inflationary pressures, we change our rating to BUY and increase our target price by $10 to $190," analyst Martin Landry wrote.(covers equity, commodity and economic research from major banks and research firms in North America, Asia and Europe.
