Barclays recently downgraded Chubb from an "overweight" rating to an "equal weight" rating, and lowered their target price from $321.00 to $298.00. This adjustment can significantly impact investor perceptions and influence the stock price, as it suggests a more cautious outlook on the company's future performance.
