MOST NOTEWORTHY: ExxonMobil, Susquehanna and BJ's Wholesale were today's noteworthy upgrades:
- Bernstein upgraded shares of ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM) to Outperform from Market Perform to reflect the company's best of industry returns and high credit rating, which they feel makes for a safe investment in the current environment.
- Keefe Bruyette upgraded shares of Susquehanna (NASDAQ: SUSQ) to Market Perform from Underperform on valuation and believes the company is unlikely to have to raise capital.
- JP Morgan raised BJ's Wholesale (NYSE: BJ) to Overweight from Neutral citing improvement in the company's ability to convert free trial customers to paid members and strong June sales, which could result in EPS upside for Q2-Q4.
OTHER UPGRADES:

- France Telecom (NYSE: FTE) was upgraded to Overweight from Neutral at HSBC.

I shop at BJ's it is the worst. Sam's and Costco are a lot better companies.
