Airbnb Inc (NASDAQ:ABNB) shares are trading lower Thursday by 3.83% at $95.72. Morgan Stanley slashed its price target on the stock.
Morgan Stanley maintained Airbnb with an Equal-Weight rating, but lowered the price target from $145 to $100, citing weakening travel demand.
Travel spend intentions over the next six months down-ticked across almost every income bracket over the last two weeks, Morgan Stanley said, citing an AlphaWise consumer pulse survey. The percentage of high-income consumers that plan to reduce travel as a result of rising inflation also increased, the analyst firm said.
Tourism and vacation saw the biggest month-over-month decline and net travel spending intentions for both domestic and international leisure turned negative for the first time together.
"Taken together, we see clearer evidence that travel demand is likely to slow," Morgan Stanley said.
