Jefferies analyst Jason Kupferberg said he believes Elliott Management's contention that Cognizant can drive its shares into the $80-$90 range is "potentially too optimistic," but he also thinks the activist's involvement creates a floor for shares "at a minimum" and he "whole-heartedly" agrees with the firm's capital deployment suggestions.
