Analyst downgrades 1-16-07: limited upside seen at XM Satellite Radio


MOST NOTEWORTHY: XM Satellite Radio (XMSR) and Cisco Systems (CSCO) topped today's list of notable downgrades.
  • XM Satellite Radio Holdings 'A' (NASDAQ: XMSR) was downgraded by Bank of America to Neutral from Buy, with a $17 target, as they see limited upside potential and significant downside potential if the company doesn't merge with Sirius Satellite Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI).
  • Cisco Systems (NASDAQ: CSCO) was downgraded at Prudential and Bank of America to Neutral, citing valuation for the move.

OTHER DOWNGRADES:

  • Cablevision Systems 'A' (NYSE: CVC) was downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Bank of America as they believe the Dolan family's $30/share bid is probably their best and final offer.
  • Getty Images (NYSE: GYI) was downgraded to Sell from Hold at Kaufman Brothers. They cited the changing stock imaging market, lowered expectations for 2007 and the options review overhang for the downgrade.
  • UIL Holdings (NYSE: UIL) was downgraded to Underweight from Hold at BB&T, citing valuation and lowered estimates.
  • RBC Capital Markets downgraded Abitibi Consolidated (NYSE: ABY) to Underperform from Sector Performer.
