Catch up on today’s top five analyst upgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. G-III Apparel (GIII) upgraded to Buy from Neutral at BofA/Merrill with analyst Heather Balsky saying she anticipates the company to benefit from a likely accelerated wind-down of unprofitable outlet business and derisking with regards to tariffs. 2. Rockwell Automation (ROK) upgraded to Neutral from Underperform at Credit Suisse with analyst John Walsh saying he is upgrading shares based on his view that Industrial Production recovers in 2H20, achievable EPS growth in FY20 driven by restructuring on flat organic sales and a more balanced risk/reward valuation profile. 3. Infinera (INFN) upgraded to Neutral from Underweight at JPMorgan with analyst Samik Chatterjee saying she believes Infinera’s recent Coriant acquisition execution is going to make investors more willing to “position themselves for the upside” from the company achieving profitability metrics similar to larger competitor Ciena (CIEN). 4. Freeport McMoRan (FCX) upgraded to Buy from Neutral at BofA/Merrill with analyst Timna Tanners saying she is looking past the company’s “transition year” and expects its Grasberg asset to make a full contribution for copper and gold production. 5. Five9 (FIVN) upgraded to Buy from Neutral at Rosenblatt with analyst Ryan Koontz saying he came away from the company’s analyst event “thoroughly impressed.” This list is just a portion of The Fly’s full analyst coverage.
