Catch up on today's top five analyst downgrades with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. Intel (INTC) downgraded to Underperform from Market Perform at Raymond James with analyst Chris Caso saying the risk that Intel won't reach its goals under new leadership, and also the pain they will likely endure in pursuit of that goal in terms of capex, lost market share, and a shifting landscape in datacenter that will make the industry less dependent on Intel. 2. VMware (VMW) downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform at Northland with analyst Nehal Chokshi saying the spinoff from Dell Technologies (DELL) should result in an governance structure theoretically and improved partner ecosystem, but this his unlikely on a practical basis, noting the spin proposal reduces VMware's financial flexibility and introduces incremental risks to business. 3. Kansas City Southern (KSU) downgraded to Equal Weight from Overweight at Wells Fargo with analyst Allison Poliniak-Cusic viewing the probability of the merger proceeding as greater than 50%, and believes another potential bidder is unlikely to step in. 4. CrossAmerica (CAPL) downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform at Raymond James with analyst Justin Jenkins citing valuation and a more balanced risk/reward. 5. Pioneer Natural (PXD) downgraded to Sector Perform from Outperform at Scotiabank with analyst Paul Cheng saying management is repositioning the company to "the right business model," but the shares appear to have largely reflected these favorable developments.
