Catch up on the today's top five analyst downgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. Diamond Resorts (DRII) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Goldman by analyst Steven Kent after the company agreed to be acquired by Apollo Global Management (APO) for $30.25 per share. The analyst keeps his price target of $32 for the shares. MKM Partners also downgraded Diamond Resorts to Neutral from Buy. 2. Qualcomm (QCOM) downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform by Bernstein, which kept a $55 target on the stock. The firm thinks that estimates for the company's September quarter remain too high, due to unrealistic licensing expectations. Bernstein adds that the company has long-term "structural issues." 3. TESARO (TSRO) downgraded to Hold from Buy at Jefferies by analyst Eun Yang, citing yesterday's rally on the company's positive Phase 3 data for niraparib in ovarian cancer. The data were better than expected, but so was the stock move, Yang tells investors in a research note. The analyst prefers a Hold rating ahead of the full data set as well as competitor data in the second half of 2016 and 2017. She lists a potential takeout and competitor data not being as good as niraparib as risks to her downgrade. Yang raised her price target for TESARO shares to $75 from $53.4. PrivateBancorp (PVTB) downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform at Keefe Bruyette by analyst David Long following the acquisition by CIBC (CM) saying he does not expected a competing bid to come to the table. PrivateBancorp was also downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform at Keefe Bruyette. 5. Spirit AeroSystems (SPR) downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform at Wells Fargo by analyst Sam Pearlstein, saying a charge for the A350 could make multiple expansion difficult. Spirit could be close to finishing a revised A350 pricing agreement that, when completed, could trigger a reach-forward loss accrual of around $200M, Pearlstein says. The analyst lowered his price target range for the shares to $50-$55 from $55-$60.This list is just a portion of The Fly's full analyst coverage.

Sony Pictures (SONY) and Apollo Global (APO) have been in talks over partnering for a joint offer to buy Paramount (PARA), the New York Times' Benjamin Mullin and Lauren Hirsch report, citing two people familiar with the matter. The two companies have not submitted an official bid, as the CBS parent is still in exclusive discussions with Skydance over a potential deal, the authors say, noting the potential Skydance pact has drawn significant pushback from shareholders.
