On August 20, CF Industries Holdings Inc rose 5.86% in regular trading, trading at $126.58/share, with turnover of $12.44 million.

On the news front, BNP Paribas raised its price target on CF Industries from $120 to $130 while maintaining a neutral rating. Analysts broadly note that the US-Iran conflict has disrupted approximately 4-4.5 million tons of urea and roughly 1 million ton of ammonia supply from Middle East and African trade flows, keeping global nitrogen fertilizer supply tight and supporting elevated nitrogen prices. CF Industries, as one of the world's largest ammonia production network operators, is a direct beneficiary of this supply constraint.

Additionally, Scotiabank recently raised its price target to $130 from $125 with a sector outperform rating, while UBS lifted its target to $123 from $115. RBC Capital Markets highlighted that the company could benefit from firm nitrogen prices, tight global supply, and strong cash flow generation, though near-term volatility from geopolitical risks remains a factor.
