All times ET. 5:46 a.m.: Guggenheim Securities upgrades GSK to buy, citing improved growth in 2024 and beyond Investors should pick up shares of drugmaker GSK , according to Guggenheim. Analyst Seamus Fernandez upgraded shares to buy from neutral and assigned a รยฃ20.31 price target, representing 21% upside to GSK’s latest close. Such a gain would take the U.S.-listed stock to around $50. “We see continued strength in GSK’s vaccine portfolio, with a strong foundation in Shingrix and growth potential in Arexvy as we predict expansion into ages 50-59 and third season data supporting repeat dosing,” Fernandez wrote in a Monday note, saying there’s “attractive upside potential in the stock” particularly if the overhang resolves from the series of lawsuits against its GSK’s heartburn drug, Zantac. The analyst added that he expects the company to post revenue upside and maintain stable margins throughout the next few years due to strong product performance. Sales of GSK’s shingles vaccination Shingrix, respiratory syncytial virus vaccine Arexvy and multiple myeloma Blenrep treatment should maintain and potentially grow sales, he added. U.S.-listed shares of GSK are up roughly 13.4% this year and have gained more than 21% over the past 12 months. รขยย Pia Singh 5:46 a.m.: Citi downgrades Ferrari to sell The good times are over for Ferrari , according to Citi.
