"We believe Street's POS [probability of success] is too low for mavorixafor's Ph3 in chronic neutropenia (CN) creating a favorable skew ahead of the 2H27 readout." 
Wells Fargo upgrades Seagate to overweight from equal weight Wells says investors should buy the dip. 
"With the recent market pullback and increasing confidence in what we view as a path to +$50 EPS + significant cap return capacity ahead, we upgrade STX to OW w/ a $1,100 PT (~20x CY28 P/E; was $900)." 
Morgan Stanley reiterates SpaceX as overweight Morgan Stanley says the release of Grok 4.5 is an important catalyst for SpaceX. 
"Key question remains whether SpaceXAI will be able to combine Grok + Cursor to create compelling, differentiated enterprise products that aren't easily replicated by competing labs." 
Morgan Stanley reiterates Nvidia as overweight Morgan Stanley says the stock remains a top idea following a meeting with management.

"We are upgrading JBHT to Outperform and raising our price target to $329. 
The stock has rallied on better end market conditions, and with earnings geared to follow through an eventual peak in truck rates we would rather be late than on the sidelines." 
Stifel upgrades Shopify to buy from hold Stifel says Shopify is a "share gainer." 
"We believe the company will continue to execute its share-gaining playbook in the e-commerce space (legacy replatforming, enterprise, B2B, international, payments) while extending its leadership through agentic commerce and compounding GMV at a multiple of the broader e- commerce market."

"Through a combination of significant restructuring efforts and refocusing the platform and R & D investment around its core competencies and AI innovation, Twilio finds itself in the right place at exactly the right time."

"We upgrade CUBE to Overweight from Equal Weight after relative underperformance YTD." 
Citi downgrades Pepsi to neutral from buy Citi downgraded Pepsi following earnings. 
"While Q2 near-term trends were pressured by inflation impacts on consumer behaviors, especially in the c- store channel, which could improve sequentially, we worry about lingering underlying N.America weakness in H2/2027." 
Rothschild & Co Redburn upgrades Fox to buy from neutral The firm says it likes Fox's deal for Roku. 
"Cost synergies of $400m equate to 18% of Roku operating costs and seem very achievable given duplicated functions such as advertising." 
Raymond James upgrades Weyerhaeuser to strong buy from outperform Raymond James says shares are compelling at current levels. 
"We are upgrading our rating on Weyerhaeuser to Strong Buy (from Outperform), following what we believe has been a disproportionate overreaction to WY's June operating update posted to the company's website on June 25."

"Despite the ongoing share buyback program and the expected resumption of dividends, we do not think Melco's balance sheet strength allows it to return cash to shareholders in an extent that would be appreciated by the market.

"For CMG's 2Q earnings (7/29), we anticipate sales results ~in line with Consensus sss, with trends positioned to improve in 2H26 given incremental pricing, traction against sales initiatives, and potential benefits from easing gas prices despite broader macro headwinds."
