Life360 Inc (ASX: 360)

According to a note out of Goldman Sachs, its analysts have initiated coverage on this location technology company's shares with a buy rating and $7.50 price target. Goldman notes that Life360 is exposed to an estimated US$12 billion global total addressable market. In addition, the broker believes that Life360 is reaching a volume/pricing inflection point, with potential structural profitability tailwinds on the horizon. The Life360 share price is trading at $5.00 today.

New Hope Corporation Limited (ASX: NHC)

A note out of Morgans reveals that its analysts have retained their add rating and lifted their price target on this coal miner's shares to $7.20. The broker is positive on the company due to higher-than-expected coal prices. It also sees the potential Acland approval (AWL) as an under-recognised catalyst, capable of adding +70 cents per share to market valuations. The New Hope share price is fetching $6.60 on Tuesday.

Xero Limited (ASX: XRO)

Analysts at Citi have retained their buy rating and $106.80 price target on this cloud accounting platform provider's shares. This follows the investor day event of rival Intuit. Citi highlights that the Quickbooks owner is growing subs quicker than Xero in the US. However, Xero is outperforming outside the US and particularly in the UK. Overall, it hasn't seen anything to change its view that Xero is well-placed for strong growth. The Xero share price is trading at $73.78 this afternoon.
