Catch up on today’s top five analyst upgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. Yelp (YELP) upgraded to Outperform from Sector Perform at RBC Capital with analyst Mark Mahaney saying the 5% after-market decline on lower fourth quarter outlook is not warranted since it is driven entirely by the Eat24 sale. 2. Domino’s Pizza (DPZ) upgraded to Buy from Hold at Maxim with analyst Stephen Anderson saying that despite the 15% pullback in stock price, the company’s fundamental trends remain solid. 3. U.S. Steel (X) upgraded to Market Perform from Underperform at Cowen with analyst Novid Rassouli telling investors the company’s revitalization program has improved cost performance and driven stable financial results for two consecutive quarters. 4. FireEye (FEYE) upgraded to Buy from Neutral at Dougherty with analyst Catharine Trebnick saying FireEye reproted solid third quarter results across key financial metrics beating her estimates on sales execution, strong NX appliance refresh/renewals, endpoint sales and Mandiant services. 5. Newpark Resources (NR) upgraded to Buy from Hold at SunTrust with analyst Ken Sill saying the latest quarter did not show a hurricane related boost to mat rentals as the market expected, which should result in subsequent quarters growing from a higher base established in Q3 as well as an accretive acquisition announced this week.
