‘Sell Instacart Stock Now,' Says Five-Star Analyst

Grocery delivery firm Instacart (CART), also known as Maplebear, is facing growing challenges as Amazon (AMZN) aggressively expands its own grocery services. With Prime becoming more attractive to budget-conscious grocery shoppers, Amazon's same-day delivery for perishable items is directly threatening Instacart's niche. While Instacart has shown solid gross transaction value (GTV) growth and improving margins, it's steadily losing market share to other platforms like DoorDash (DASH) and Uber (UBER). Because of these risks, five-star Wedbush analyst Scott Devitt downgraded Instacart from Hold to Sell and reduced his price target by 24%, bringing it down to $42.

He pointed out that Amazon's entry into same-day grocery delivery not only encroaches on Instacart's market but also adds more value for existing Prime members, which makes it harder for Instacart to stand out. Devitt also warned that Instacart's narrow focus and limited offerings make it vulnerable to competitors with larger product ecosystems. Indeed, since around 60% of Instacart's GTV comes from members, any shift toward more appealing subscription services from rivals could hurt its growth and user retention. Looking ahead, Devitt believes that investors will begin questioning Instacart's future growth potential. He argued that current Wall Street expectations for GTV growth may not factor in the increasing pressure from competitors. As a result, he now expects GTV to grow at a slower pace (mid- to low-single digits) compared to the higher growth rates previously forecast. Devitt also adjusted his estimates downward by reducing Q4 GTV and adjusted EBITDA by 1% and 2%, respectively. In addition, for full-year 2026, he cut his GTV growth projection to 7.1% (200 basis points lower than before) and trimmed his EBITDA forecast by 3% to $1.2 billion. Is CART Stock a Good Buy Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Moderate Buy consensus rating on CART stock based on 14 Buys, six Holds, and one Sell assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. Furthermore, the average CART price target of $59.32 per share implies 33.8% upside potential.

Americans want their stuff delivered fast — and they're willing to pay

American shoppers appear to be singing the iconic words of the rock group Queen: "I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now." Walmart shoppers in particular seem to have an insatiable appetite for getting lots of stuff delivered — and fast. "Speed of delivery is important to customers, and we're continuing to get faster," Walmart CFO John David Rainey said Thursday on the retail giant's second-quarter earnings call. Rainey said that roughly a third of the company's ship-from-store orders were fulfilled in three hours or less — many of which required either an additional rush fee or a $98-a-year membership with Walmart Plus. A fifth of those orders reached customers in 30 minutes or less, Rainey said. That works out to one in fifteen orders fulfilled from the store arriving in less than half an hour. That kind of speed is key to competing with rivals. Walmart's push to speed up delivery comes as competitors Amazon and Tractor Supply Co. have laid out ambitious expansion plans this year for the size and speed of their fulfillment networks, especially in more rural markets. Morgan Stanley analysts estimate that rural households account for about one out of every five dollars spent on personal consumption in the US. But regardless of whether they live in cities, suburbs, or rural areas, American shoppers seem to be getting increasingly impatient — especially when it comes to everyday essentials. To that end, Amazon also said last week that it now offers fresh grocery delivery in more than 1,000 cities and plans to double that by the end of the year. Its same-day delivery service is free for Prime members on orders over $25 and available to non-members for $12.99. Both of Amazon's initiatives (rural expansion and faster grocery delivery) target Walmart's bread and butter business. Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said he isn't surprised — and the competition is pushing the company to get stronger. "Convenience has been driving our business for a while now, and I think that'll continue," McMillon said on Thursday's earnings call. "We stay focused on what's happening with the customer." Jefferies retail analyst Corey Tarlowe told Business Insider that Amazon still has a long road ahead to close the gap with Walmart. "We all know that Amazon can get you stuff fast, but Walmart can deliver to 95% of the US in under three hours," he said. Speeding delivery, from milk to chicken feed Americans don't just want their milk and eggs to arrive fast. They want their livestock and chicken feed delivered to their doorsteps, too. Rural lifestyle retailer Tractor Supply Co. reported strong growth of its in-house fulfillment service, which can handle everything from chicken feed to fencing to gun safes with more speed and finesse than some of its existing delivery partners. "In markets where Final Mile is active, we're seeing an average order size of nearly $400, which is a multiple of our average basket. Our largest order has been valued at more than $40,000," the company's supply chain chief, Colin Yankee, told investors on an earnings call last month. Yankee said the service earns higher customer satisfaction scores, a significantly lower return rate, and stronger engagement than the company's other delivery options. Consumers also continue to hire private taxis for their burritos. Uber's delivery revenue was up 20% last quarter. And Instacart reported that one in four orders that paid an expedited Priority fee last quarter were completed in 30 minutes or less. The company also said it rolled out new Priority options for Costco and Kroger. Behind the scenes, the companies in this delivery race are tapping into huge budgets for AI, robotics, and other supply chain wizardry in the effort to eke out a bit more speed and efficiency. Some are even expanding their fleet of drones. So far, US shoppers have shown themselves willing to pay for the option of having their groceries, merchandise, and more delivered right to their door in minutes.

Instacart downgraded to Underperform at Wedbush on competition concerns

Wedbush analyst Scott Devitt downgraded Instacart (CART) to Underperform from Neutral with a price target of $42, down from $55, arguing that Amazon's (AMZN) expansion of its same-day perishable grocery delivery service has intensified competition. The firm, which believes that consumers will opt for value-driven services, says Instacart management must navigate this new dynamic to protect market share, which ultimately it sees eroding over time as Amazon and others compete more closely. The firm thinks Prime has become 'even more compelling' for grocery shoppers, diminishing the appeal of Instacart, the analyst added.
