Stifel upgraded the stock from Hold to Buy, noting that “there’s a lot to like about the fundamental UPS story right now,” raising its target price to $224. “I’d say that UPS is in the best position or at least one of the best positions” amid the holiday shopping season, Stifel’s Bruce Chan said on Yahoo Finance Live. “When you’re looking at the kind of… Source link

Last Sunday marked another week of brutal injuries with Saquon Barkley (ankle) and Clyde Edwards-Helaire (knee) headlining the list of prominent names forced out of action. And for good measure, this is the first week of byes.  Injuries often open the door for cost-saving options in daily fantasy football, but we’re steering clear of Devontae Booker and Darrel Williams in our Week 6 Yahoo DFS lineup this week in spite of the expected increase in their usage. In… Source link
