These are the top pre-market analyst upgrades and downgrades this Wednesday morning in early trading.
After today, we’d expect analyst coverage to start getting this until at least next Tuesday because of the shortened week. We have already seen the effects of fewer participants this week, particularly after such a stellar quarter that just ended yesterday.

Marvel Entertainment (MVL) and Viacom (VIA), parent of Paramount, benefitted as "Iron Man" based on a Marvel comic book character brought in over $100 million.
According to the AP The film also scored overseas with $96.7 million in 57 countries where it began opening Wednesday, putting its worldwide total at $201 million.
The move makes that management at Marvel look brilliant for handling the production of "Iron Man" themselves instead of having it handled by a major studio. Paramount handed distribution.
