  • Goldman lowered its rating on RWE AG (OTC:RWEOY) to Sell from Neutral. They believe shares are discounting high power prices for the long term and sees downside risk to earnings.
  • Kaufman Bros. downgraded shares of Asta Funding (NASDAQ:ASFI) to Hold from Buy to reflect the uncertainty surrounding the company's extension in reporting its Q4 and fiscal 2007 results.
  • Trident Microsystems (NASDAQ:TRID) was lowered to Hold from Buy at Roth Capital. Roth Capital's checks indicate low end TVs continue to outsell top tier LCD TVs, which could impact Trident's revenues.

OTHER DOWNGRADES:

  • Trane (NYSE:TT) was downgraded to Equal Weight from Overweight at Lehman.
  • Deutsche Bank downgraded Marshall & Ilsley (NYSE:MI) to Hold from Buy.
  • UBS downgraded Nestle (NSRGY) to Neutral from Buy.
