UBS analyst John Hodulik raised his price target on Comcast to $84 from $75 following its stronger than expected Q4 results. The analyst cited its solid EBITDA growth, expectations for continued revenue growth, its dividend yield, and stock buybacks. Hodulik reiterated his Buy rating on Comcast shares.

Pivotal Research analyst Jeffrey Wlodarczak lowered the firm's price target on Comcast (CMCSA) to $48 from $55 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Comcast reported an-line Q1 results but the competitive environment appears to be intensifying, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes there is an "outside shot" that Comcast could make a play for Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) "given it can probably get the asset relatively inexpensively and it would clearly boost their scale in content," says Pivotal.
