Catch up on today's top five analyst downgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. Kroger (KR) downgraded to Hold from Buy at Jefferies with analyst Christopher Mandeville saying after the stock's 15% rally in three months, the analyst is "checking out" as his confidence in Kroger's long-term grocery strategy and management's ability to effectively communicate "wanes." 2. HP Inc. (HPQ) downgraded to Sell from Neutral at Goldman Sachs while Cisco (CSCO) was downgraded to Neutral from Buy. 3. Continental Resources (CLR) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Mizuho analyst Paul Sankey saying while the company has taken steps to reduce leverage and initiated its own cash return strategy, he has too much concern about the trajectory of spending and the quality of its unconventional opportunity longer-term to remain Buy-rated. 4. Evergy (EVRG) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at BofA/Merrill with analyst Julien Dumoulin-Smith citing the Missouri PSC vote in favor of petitioners against the company in the ongoing Sibley Generating Station complaint. 5. ForeScout (FSCT) downgraded to Neutral from Overweight at JPMorgan with analyst Sterling Auty citing the company's announcement of preliminary September quarter revenue that was about 10% short of expectations due primarily to macroeconomic conditions in EMEA.

Telsey Advisory analyst Joseph Feldman raised the firm's price target on Kroger to $62 from $60 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm's meetings with Kroger and investors have increased the firm's visibility and confidence in Kroger's sustainable long-term growth opportunity, the analyst tells investors. Further, Kroger is transitioning to a food-first model from traditional food retail. This transition should create new growth areas that are significantly more profitable than food retail and should boost the profit profile over time, the firm adds.
