📉 Backdrop: Nasdaq -4.5% last week to 26,140.03 and S&P 500 -1.9% to 7,659.44, with the Russell 2000 -3%, as AI-financing and chip fears hit tech. Netflix, GE, Meta and Tesla report this week. AP ↗

Why BUY: BofA double-upgrades Fox to Buy and lifts its PT to $85 from $54, saying the Roku deal 'changes the equation.'
⚠ The Roku deal isn't expected to close until early 2027; a soft tape Monday could swamp the upgrade.
no analyst target · new source · 3 agree · 1 dissent
Why SELL: Our read: the Russell 2000 fell 1.7% Friday and 3% on the week as a ~5.1% 10-year yield squeezes small caps.
⚠ After a long losing streak small caps are oversold; any dip in yields could spark a sharp Monday bounce.
+25% vs analyst target · new source · 2 agree · 0 dissent
Why BUY: Reports Tue pre-market, Street at $2.01 EPS (+21%); Jefferies (Buy, $435) and Wells Fargo (OW, $380) stay bullish.
⚠ Previews flag engine supply-chain and margin risks; a cautious guide could stall the stock.
+19% vs analyst target · new source · 3 agree · 0 dissent
Why BUY: Goldman upgrades Zeta to Buy and lifts its PT to $45 from $30: it wins share as enterprises consolidate marketing tools.
⚠ Marketing budgets are cyclical, and the stock gave back 5% Friday in a risk-off tape.
+53% vs analyst target · new source · 3 agree · 0 dissent
Why BUY: JPMorgan double-upgrades to Overweight ($144 PT): shares sit 40% below NAV after $43B of AT&T and SpaceX spectrum sales.
⚠ Value leans on SpaceX shares and deal closings; the stock slid ~10% over the past five sessions.
+78% vs analyst target · new source · 3 agree · 0 dissent
Why BUY: Down 10% this week on China's CXMT, but KeyBanc reiterates $1,750 and sees Q4 DRAM prices rising ~15%.
⚠ CXMT's DRAM progress or an AI-capex pullback could squeeze memory prices; it's a high-volatility name.
