Stem, Tesla, Textron, Two Harbors and More Tuesday Afternoon Analyst Calls
Oasis Petroleum, Stem, Tata Motors, Tesla, Textron and Two Harbors Investment were among Tuesday afternoon's analyst upgrades and downgrades.
Stocks were mostly higher in midday Tuesday trading, after both the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq closed at record highs on Monday. All eyes across Wall Street are focused on Friday’s June jobs report. After the reports missed estimates badly for the past two months, many feel that with states ending extended unemployment benefits, the numbers could be in line or higher than estimates this time around. However, many feel it should be much better for the July jobs report in August, once pandemic unemployment benefits have expired in 25 states. Trading volume also is expected to continue to slow as we approach the long Fourth of July holiday weekend.
