Catch up on today's top five analyst upgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. Adobe (ADBE) upgraded to Buy from Neutral at BTIG. 2. Best Buy (BBY) upgraded to Overweight from Neutral at Piper Jaffray with analyst Peter Keith saying store closures from hhgregg and potentially Sears (SHLD) could lift Best Buy's comp sales by 2%, Keith tells investors in a research note. Further, the upcoming iPhone and Samsung Galaxy Note launches should bring a "strong smartphone upgrade cycle," the analyst contends. 3. HCA Holdings (HCA) and Universal Health (UHS) were upgraded to Buy from Neutral at Mizuho. 4. Weatherford (WFT) upgraded to Outperform from Market Perform at Wells Fargo with analyst Judson Bailey citing greater confidence in improving operations with the hire of CEO Mark McCollum and the formation of the OneStim joint venture. 5. Brookdale Senior Living (BKD) upgraded to Buy from Hold at Jefferies with analyst Brian Tanquilut citing an improved risk/reward following the recent pullback in the shares. The analyst sees a greater than 50% probability that Brookdale's ongoing sale process results in a deal, but thinks the stock can reach $14.50 even without a takeout. He upped his price target for the shares to $16.50 from $14. This list is just a portion of The Fly's full analyst coverage. To see The Fly's full Street Research coverage, click here.
