" Bank of America adds Advanced Micro Devices to the US1 list Bank of America added the stock to its top ideas list. "We are adding Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) to the US 1 List." JPMorgan downgrades Li Auto neutral from overweight JPMorgan downgraded the China EV company on rising competition.

Wells Fargo initiates Steel Dynamics as overweight Wells said it likes companies that have exposure to the U.S. "We prefer names with U.S. exposure, as we see steel prices supported by a drop in imports and inventory into year-end that can support mill pricing power. Top picks include STLD and CMC, while we're less confident in imminent relief from excess Chinese supply for more global players TX and MT." UBS initiates SiTime as buy UBS said the semis company has "big AI leverage." "We initiate coverage of SiTime (SITM) with a Buy rating and $260 PT (20% upside)." Citi reiterates CoreWeave as buy Citi said it's sticking with shares of CoreWeave.

Rothschild & Co Redburn initiates Regeneron as buy The firm said it's bullish on shares of the biotech company. "For Regeneron , that cycle has been even more extreme: huge sector outperformance since 2012 until a dramatic reversal over the past year. Time for another look at the company? We think so and launch coverage with a Buy recommendation and a $890 price target. Stephens upgrades Asbury Automotive to overweight from equal weight Stephens said in its upgrade of the car detailing company that Asbury is starting to fire on all cylinders.

The feedback on CEO Hult is unanimous and consistent. He is a hands-on, attention to details operator." Deutsche Bank reiterates Amazon as buy Deutsche said it's cautiously optimistic on Amazon's grocery strategy. "Early yesterday, Amazon announced what it called "one of the most significant grocery expansions" in the company's history, with free SameDay delivery for US Prime users on perishable orders of $35 or more. While, Amazon's grocery strategy has been a bit of a moving target, and success has been uneven, we do believe that the new product could prove meaningful to Amazon's grocery volume in the medium term." HSBC upgrades dLocal to buy from neutral HSBC upgraded the fintech company following earnings. " dLocal has been exhibiting low earnings volatility and improving disclosures over the past year, and finally this quarter we saw a big EBIT beat (despite some one-off trends) and continued strong volumes." Mizuho upgrades MAA to outperform from neutral Mizuho said the real estate investment trust has an "underleveraged balance sheet." "We upgrade MAA t o Outperform ($150PT), given: accelerating blended rents into 2H25 and accelerating core and FFO/sh growth into 2026e; falling supply across MAA's core markets, suggesting less operating risk and supporting rent improvement; underleveraged balance sheet supporting external growth and further capital deployment." Morgan Stanley reiterates Cisco as overweight Morgan Stanley raised its price target on the stock to $73 per share from $70 following earnings.

Cantor Fitzgerald initiates Workday as overweight Cantor said shares of the HR software company has an attractive entry point. "WDAY is a high-quality asset with a strong management team, entrenched competitive position in the enterprise, expanding growth vectors, and latent margin potential. The stock is trading near its all-time low EPS and FCF multiples, which we see as an attractive entry point with a positively skewed risk/reward ratio." Wells Fargo reiterates Sunrun as overweight Wells raised its price target on the stock to $14 per share from $8 and says the solar company remains a top idea. "We're raising our PT to $14/sh, based on a DCF framework: $8/sh of base value and $6/sh of terminal value (2030+). ... We continue to view RUN as a top pick in the residential solar space." Read more. Citi reiterates Microsoft as buy Citi said the tech giant remains a top idea at the firm. " MSFT remains a top pick in software, and we believe this week's announcement is another indication of the company's strong pricing power, which we believed combined with accelerating cloud/AI share gains can drive outsized returns." Barclays initiates Schrodinger as overweight Barclays said shares of the biotech company have plenty more room to run. " Schrödinger (SDGR) has a physics-based drug discovery platform that drives revenues, is used to develop partnered therapeutics programs, and helps fund and internally develop their own early stage pipeline of therapeutics." BTIG upgrades Kratos Defense and Security Solutions to buy from neutral The firm said it sees a slew of positive catalysts ahead for the defense solutions company.

Bank of America upgrades Sherwin-Williams to neutral from underperform Bank of America said its "thesis has played out" for Sherwin-Williams . "When we downgraded shares to Underperform, we were concerned about a deceleration in housing markets and sell-side estimates that were overly optimistic.

Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures flat with PPI looming amid rate-cut fervor
US stock futures hovered around the flatline on Thursday as Wall Street awaited another pulse check on inflation after Tuesday's tepid figures sent rate-cut bets and markets soaring. Futures attached to the Dow Jones Industrial Average (YM=F) and the benchmark S&P 500 (ES=F) mostly traded flat. The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) also hovered around the flatline. Stocks extended their rally Wednesday, pushing the S&P 500 and Nasdaq to consecutive record highs. Bitcoin got a boost from mounting rate-cut bets, too, reaching a new record high Wednesday evening before scaling back on those gains. Euphoria over a possible September rate cut has swept Wall Street over the past two sessions after July's Consumer Price Index report showed inflation rose as expected, but not dramatically. Traders have now fully priced in a rate cut at the Fed's next meeting, even as some Fed policymakers continue to urge patience. On Thursday, investors will be eager to see if July's Producer Price Index (PPI) report falls in line with the CPI data that has boosted sentiment this week. Friday's release on July's retail sales numbers will this week's final economic data point. In corporate news, cryptocurrency exchange operator Bullish (BLSH) rose over 10% on Thursday before the bell, hovering around $77, more than double its IPO price of $37. Good morning. Here's what's happening today. Economic data: Initial jobless claims (week ending Aug. 9); Producer Price Index, (July); Earnings: (JD), Deere & Company (DE), Advanced Auto Parts (AAP), Birkenstock (BIRK), Applied Materials (AMAT), Nucor (NUE) Here are some of the biggest stories you may have missed overnight and early this morning: These stock market all-time highs aren't quite frothy 117-year high at busiest port in the US Earnings: Foxconn beats on AI demand, Deere profit falls Bullish stock tops $75 after strong IPO debut US oil producers say OPEC+ 'price war' will halt shale boom Rate cut next month doesn't seem warranted: Fed's Daly Trump's Treasury set to decide fate of of wind, solar projects Trump-fueled crypto frenzy sparks rush to Wall Street IPOs 'Tesla shame' bypasses Norway as sales jump despite Musk's politics Amazon grocery push stocks still in focus When Amazon (AMZN) goes big on something, usually the stock prices of its competitors get beat up. The latest example came on Wednesday Amazon announced plans to expand its 1,000-city fresh and perishable same-day grocery delivery to 2,300 cities by year-end. Huge deal for the grocery industry. Albertson's (ACI) and Kroger (KR) — aka traditional grocers — saw their share prices nailed. I think this is a big deal for the industry and for Amazon. The impact of Amazon's move won't be felt overnight, but just like the company's impact on department stores in recent years the aftershocks will be felt over time. EvercoreISI analyst Michael Montani with some good thoughts this morning: "While Amazon's actions increase competitive intensity, we see the change as incremental in what remains a relatively rational competitive backdrop. Consumers should win as we believe traditional grocers (and some mass players) will likely respond by reducing or eliminating their own delivery fees over time. Membership programs like Kroger Boost and Albertsons FreshPass take on an ever more important function for driving loyalty and eliminating delivery fees. We see a parallel to what happened to the traditional curbside pickup fee 3-5 years ago, namely it went away. Bigger picture, we see three mega themes playing out to shape grocery into the second half of 2025 – a) value seeking given that the elevated spread between grocery and restaurant pricing trade down into food at home should persist, b) healthy eating – demographic shifts, social media and even MAHA should combine to keep better for you products growing at around 3-4% vs. the 2.5-3% we consider normal for the broader grocery market, and c) multichannel as evidenced by our latest eCommerce survey consumers continue to prioritize the convenience of multichannel when considering where to shop in the future." I don't hate this Cisco quarter Cisco (CSCO) is always a tricky play around its earnings report. The company isn't a fast grower, and what the Street focuses on tends to shift from quarter to quarter. Sometimes its profit margins, sometimes its product orders, sometimes it's the outlook. Going through the latest, I don't hate the quarter and outlook. Gross margins were up across the board, the AI narrative and numbers were solid as well. Some weakness in the security business as expected, but the demand drivers out there suggest new full year guidance could be conservative. "We think investors should look past Public Sector weakness, which likely hurt Security growth, given the opportunity around Hyperscaler/Enterprise AI, Neoclouds, and Sovereign could quickly offset the weakness. We continue to like Cisco for these drivers of growth, and when paired with a mix shift toward software/subscription over time, healthy free cash flow growth, and shareholder returns, we believe a premium to historical valuations is warranted," KeyBanc analyst Brandon Nispel said. I am live on Opening Bid today around 9:40am ET with Cisco's new CFO Mark Patterson. So we'll get to pull apart the numbers and guidance further! Bullish stock rises to $75 after IPO debut Yahoo Finance's breaking news reporter Jake Conley looks into the Bullish (BLSH) stock market debut. Cryptocurrency exchange operator Bullish (BLSH) rose 8% on Thursday before the bell, reaching $75, doubling its IPO price of $37 and valuing the company at more than $10 billion. Still, this marked around a 16% drop from where the stock opened for trade. Bullish stock opened for trade at $90 near 1:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, and the stock traded hands as high as $118 per share shortly after, a more than 215% gain. The stock was halted for trade due to volatility at least twice within the first few minutes of trading. The company, which operates a crypto exchange and owns the prominent trade publication CoinDesk, priced its IPO at $37 per share on Tuesday, above the $32 to $33 range the company had expected in its second shot at making a public market debut. Bullish began its IPO processes looking for a price between $28 to $31 per share. At 30 million shares offered, the IPO price saw Bullish raise $1.1 billion and value the fintech company at $5.41 billion.
