EBAY

UBS analyst Eric Sheridan downgraded eBay to Neutral from Buy with an unchanged price target of $42. The shares closed yesterday at $39.74. The stock is up 44% year-to-date and within 4% of the price target, Sheridan tells investors in a research note. The analyst believes the shares now better reflect the value of eBay's underlying assets, or Marketplace, StubHub and Classifieds. Further, at current levels, expectations for a potential spin-off of eBay's noncore assets, Classifieds Group and/or StubHub, are largely priced in, says Sheridan.
