Pure Storage upgraded to Overweight from Equal Weight at Morgan Stanley 07:47 PSTG Morgan Stanley analyst Meta Marshall upgraded Pure Storage to Overweight from Equal Weight with a price target of $37, up from $35.

Her prior hesitation for much of the year has been around gaining confidence that there was fundamental support to valuation versus just growth, but she has become more comfortable being Overweight with growing confidence in Pure Storage's competitive advantages, Marshall tells investors.
Cowen starts Freyr Battery at Outperform, sees 'less technology risk' 07:44 FREY Cowen analyst Gabe Daoud initiated coverage of Freyr Battery with an Outperform rating and no price target. Lithium-ion battery tailwinds have only accelerated in the last year given supportive policy, additional auto announcements and battery JVs underscoring the importance of battery supply chains, Daoud tells investors. He calls Freyr "a de-SPAC that has less technology risk than other startups," arguing that it stands out as a well-positioned advanced lithium-ion battery company leveraging MIT spin-out 24M's mature technology and management's manufacturing expertise. Cells from Freyr's first two gigafactories in Norway and the U.S. will utilize a manufacturing process that removes 10 steps vs. traditional LiB processes, the analyst added.

2seventy Bio initiated with a Buy at Guggenheim 06:56 TSVT, BMY Guggenheim analyst Kelsey Goodwin initiated coverage of 2seventy Bio (TSVT) with a Buy rating and $30 price target as she starts coverage of five biotech stocks pursuing "innovative approaches to cell therapy." 2seventy has "been a pioneer of anti-BCMA CAR-T cell therapy" and together with partner Bristol-Myers (BMY) secured FDA-approval of the first CAR-T therapy in multiple myeloma, Abecma, last March, Goodwin tells investors. She does not think 2seventy's current valuation reflects the full commercial potential of Abecma, given the view that patient demand for anti-BCMA CAR-T cell therapies "vastly exceeds current commercial availability," providing room for several commercial competitors, Goodwin said.
