As previously reported, BofA/Merrill upgraded Avery Dennison to Buy from Neutral and increased its price target to $96 from $90. Analyst George Staphos said the demand outlook appears positive driven by strong e-commerce trends, indicated by an increase in box shipments of up mid-single-digits in May, The analyst said increased demand is a positive for Avery's Label and Graphic Materials business, and a pick up in apparel imports, when combined with an e-commerce demand, is a positive for the company's Retail Branding & Information Solutions and radio frequency identification trends.
