Analyst upgrades:
- Merriman upgraded NetApp (NASDAQ:NTAP) to Buy from Neutral after channel checks indicated the storage market is bottoming out in Q1. The firm thinks NTAP is well positioned heading into FY10 and could be an attractive takeout target for the likes of Hewlett-Packard (NYSE:HPQ), IBM (NYSE:IBM), or EMC (NYSE:EMC).
- Goldman added Dr. Pepper Snapple (DPS) to its Conviction Buy list citing valuation and favorable U.S. soda trends. The firm has a $23 target on shares.
- Baird said Inegrys Energy's (NYSE:TEG) decision to wind down or exit its profitable non-regulated energy marketing business lowers business risk and improves financial flexibility. The firm upgraded shares to Outperform from Neutral.
- Yum! Brands (NYSE:YUM) was raised to Overweight from Neutral at JP Morgan.
- International Paper (NYSE:IPI) was upgraded at Deutsche Bank to Buy from Hold.
- Cablevision (NYSE:CVC) was lifted to Equal Weight from Underweight at Morgan Stanley.
