Catch up on today's top five analyst downgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. FactSet (FDS) downgraded to Sell from Neutral at Goldman Sachs with analyst George Tong saying he believes FactSet faces "secular challenges" in the financial services end-market due to the implementation of MiFID II and the ongoing shift from active to passive asset management. 2. Travelers (TRV) downgraded to Sell from Hold at Deutsche Bank with analyst Joshua Shanker saying the commercial Property & Casualty sector is "largely overvalued" due to an intra-sector exodus from more rate-sensitive financials into P&C insurance stocks. 3. Sempra Energy (SRE) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at BofA/Merrill with analyst Julien Dumoulin-Smith citing share outperformance and moderating expectations on expedited CA legislation by the July 12 deadline combined with a potential credit downgrade. 4. W. R. Berkley (WRB) downgraded to Sell from Hold at Deutsche Bank with analyst Joshua Shanker saying investors are mistaking the appreciation in Property and Casualty insurance stocks as the "fruit of renewal rate pricing increases in the P&C market." 5. Ross Stores (ROST) and Nordstrom (JWN) downgraded to Sell from Neutral at Goldman Sachs. This list is just a portion of The Fly's full analyst coverage.
