The Sherwin-Williams Company is one of the 10 best stocks to buy according to billionaire Richard Chilton. The specialty chemicals company makes and sells paints, coatings, and other associated products, with shares flat over the year and up 4.5% year-to-date. Citi raised its price target to $380 from $355 and kept a Buy rating on June 24, after reinstating coverage on June 3 with a $355 target and Buy rating, viewing it as an attractive entry opportunity. UBS cut its target to $330 from $385 and downgraded the stock to Neutral from Buy on June 2, citing a more balanced risk-reward outlook. Aoris Investment Management noted in its first-quarter 2026 investor letter that weak US property sales and sluggish industrial economy have affected paint volumes and industrial coatings growth, leading to concerns about structurally slower end markets, and the firm sold its position to buy Cintas at a wider discount to fair value.
