Loop Capital analyst Rick Paterson raised his price target on FedEx after the company reported much lower than expected Q1 EPS. The analyst blamed the miss on a cyberattack and Hurricane Harvey. The analyst notes that the company expects FedEx Ground's operating income to rise this year, while it reiterated its operating income target for its Express unit. The analyst says that the stock "will have no choice" but to rise if the company continues to reiterate the latter target. He keeps a Buy rating on the shares.
