StoneX raises Securitize price target to $18, keeps buy rating

StoneX raised its price target on tokenized asset platform Securitize (SECZ) to $18 from $12, a 50% increase, while maintaining a buy rating. The brokerage said the upgrade reflects its view that the launch of the new “Securitize Stocks” platform, which brings real-world stocks including Apple, Nvidia and Tesla on-chain on Solana, has shifted the company away from a model reliant on simple linkage fees and toward a higher-margin model based on actual trading and settlement fees. StoneX estimated Securitize’s revenue will grow at a 65% compound annual rate to reach $198.5 million by 2028. It added that improving monetization on $5.3 billion in second-quarter trading volume and expanding liquidity in real-world assets, or RWAs, could drive a broader re-rating of the company’s valuation.
