It's worth hopping on Harley-Davidson due to the company's focus on the core business and better-off consumer, according to Morgan Stanley. His price target of $50 implies the stock could gain 33.2% from where it closed Monday. HOG YTD mountain Harley-Davidson Jonas also said he's increased his optimism given Chairman and CEO Jochen Zeitz's focus on generating cash flow from the core motorcycle business, while simultaneously managing risks related to spun-off electric motorcycle maker LiveWire . Jonas said Zeitz's business has a "back to basics" approach that's proving useful amid lingering supply chain challenges and a changing consumer spending outlook. He said the 2022 spinoff of LiveWire allows Harley-Davidson to focus on perfecting its bread-and-butter business and catering to the core base rather than trying to expand reach.
