NatWest shares rise on Barclays upgrade despite UK tax concerns. NatWest Group shares jumped 3% after Barclays upgraded the bank to Overweight and raised its price target to 850p. This positive move occurred despite broader weakness in UK bank stocks following reports of a potential tax hike in the upcoming October budget. The stock currently offers a high dividend yield of 7.52%, which some analysts view as attractive relative to its valuation.
