August 30, 2026

Analyst downgrades Sun Life, citing valuation concerns. An analyst has downgraded Sun Life Financial, noting that while the company remains a well-run business, its share price has grown more expensive relative to peers such as Manulife. The downgrade reflects valuation rather than any change in the company's underlying business. Sun Life currently trades at a trailing P/E of 19.5 and sits well above its 52-week low of $56.61, though below its $84.38 high. The average analyst price target stands at $69.65, slightly above recent levels.
