Wacker Chemie stock rises 3 percent as MWB raises target

Wacker Chemie AG (ISIN DE000WCH8881) traded near EUR 90 on Xetra on September 22, 2026, up 3 percent in the morning. The move followed MWB Research raising its price target to EUR 105 from EUR 95 and issuing a Buy recommendation, according to Investing.com on September 22, 2026.

MWB lifts target to EUR 105

The revised target is EUR 10 above the previous EUR 95 level. MWB analyst Abed Jarad linked the more constructive view to stricter capital allocation, higher profitability and better use of existing assets, as reported by Investing.com on September 22, 2026. The cost and efficiency program PACE was identified as the main medium-term earnings driver, with the expected benefit coming from improved margins rather than capacity expansion alone.

The market response was measurable: the shares advanced about 3 percent to roughly EUR 90 during the morning and approached their 21-day and 50-day moving averages. That places the current quote above the September 18 close, but still below the recent yearly high.

Stock remains below yearly high

The last completed Xetra close available in the market coverage was EUR 84.30 on September 18, 2026, down 3.51 percent from the prior session. The same dated reference showed a 52-week range of EUR 61.15 to EUR 105.60, leaving the close EUR 21.30 below the high and EUR 23.15 above the low.

The next quarterly results are scheduled for October 29, 2026, according to the dated market overview published by AD HOC NEWS. That date gives the market a defined checkpoint for testing whether PACE can translate into reported margin improvement.

EUR 90 remains the market reference

Wacker Chemie stock traded around EUR 90 on Xetra on September 22, 2026, with the morning gain reported at 3 percent. The quote remained below the 52-week high of EUR 105.60, while the September 18 close of EUR 84.30 provides the latest completed-session benchmark.
