Catch up on today's top five analyst downgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. InterContinental (IHG) downgraded to Underweight from Equal Weight at Barclays with analyst Vicki Stern stating downside risks from a macroeconomic slowdown are not reflected in the stock at current valuation levels. 2. Freshpet (FRPT) downgraded to Hold from Buy at SunTrust with analyst William Chappell saying his positive view of the company's fundamental story and outlook have not changed, but he cannot recommend for new investors to buy the stock at its current levels. 3. Regeneron (REGN) downgraded to Hold from Buy at Argus with analyst Jasper Hellweg noting that while the company has a "strong pipeline" with new recent indications for multiple products, its primary revenue driver Eylea is facing several competitive threats. 4. Oracle (ORCL) downgraded to Neutral from Outperform at Macquarie with analyst Sarah Hindlian telling investors that her checks suggest that closing the fourth quarter "was a struggle," with partners saying they had to rush to discount orders up until the final days. 5. J.B. Hunt (JBHT) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at UBS with analyst Thomas Wadewitz citing his increasing conviction that after a period of strong freight and unusually strong pricing in 2018, the downturn in freight will persist through 2019 amid "falling truckload and intermodal contract rates" for 2020.
