BMO Capital analyst R. Scott Graham lowered his price target on Dover to $98 but kept his Outperform rating. Graham says that after talks with the management, he believes 2018 remains on track with the company's guidance but more loaded toward the second half of the year given the less positive price-cost trend. The analyst still expects the second half to be stronger than the first half in Fluids and Refrigeration segments, but says that Engineered Solutions will face tougher comparisons. Graham also deems his prior view for share repurchases to be overly aggressive.
