Yelp (YELP) downgraded to Hold om Buy at SunTrust with analyst Matthew Thornton citing a surprising and disappointing set of Q3 results following a "stellar" first half of 2018, highlighted by the return of sales execution issues, yielding an unexpected slowdown in gross account adds and continued churn. 2. Cheesecake Factory (CAKE) downgraded to Underweight from Equal Weight at Barclays with analyst Jeffrey Bernstein saying he sees headwinds persisting following the company's "disappointing" Q3 results and views the valuation as full at current share levels. 3. Infinity Pharmaceuticals (INFI) downgraded to Underweight from Neutral at JPMorgan and to Market Perform at Wells Fargo. 4. Skyworks (SWKS) downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Citi with analyst Atif Malik saying the company is being impacted by broad smartphone weakness, disappointing unit sales of Apple's (AAPL) iPhone XR, and a high Apple concentration, which represented 39% of sales in fiscal 2019. 5. AB InBev (BUD) downgraded to Hold from Buy at Argus with analyst David Coleman citing the company's dividend cut, which he believes reduces the attraction of the stock to income investors.
