Catch up on today's top five analyst downgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. HP Inc. (HPQ) downgraded to Hold from Buy at Loop Capital with analyst Ananda Baruah citing HP's Analyst Day presentation disclosing strategic initiatives, job cuts, and a free cash flow guide of $3B in FY20 vs. $3.7B in FY21. 2. Insulet (PODD) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at UBS with analyst Matthew Taylor citing valuation. 3. NIO Inc. (NIO) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Goldman Sachs with analyst Fei Fang saying Nio's share price has fallen 40% since September 24, when the company announced Q2 results, which Fang attributes to uncertainties about volume since Chinese EV sales have rapidly declined after the government reduced electric vehicle subsidies and about the company's capital structure and funding needs. 4. EchoStar (SATS) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Citi with analyst Michael Rollins saying the company's lack of free cash flow and limited visibility on its future growth prospects will likely limit the potential for multiple expansion. 5. Ambarella (AMBA) resumed with a Hold from Buy at Stifel with analyst Tore Svanberg saying he believes inventory build in security surveillance, especially China, could limit near term upside in the stock.
