and moment","content":"<p>Traders in the stock market can take advantage of special situations to exploit sentiment and momentum and make quick profits — if they are quick enough or lucky enough. But over the long haul, investors have profited by holding shares of companies that increase sales, earnings and cash flow. And the resulting increases in analysts’ ratings can help lift stock prices.</p>\n<p>Below is a list of stocks among the S&P 500SPX,+0.10%that have had the biggest increases in “buy” or equivalent ratings this year among analysts polled by FactSet. An upgrade may mean a stock has fallen enough so that an analyst believes it has become a compelling value. Or it may mean that something has changed for the better in the company’s business or industry. Or it could be a combination these and other factors.</p>\n<p>A focus on the positive side of the ratings action makes sense. Analysts working for brokerage firms — those that provide recommendations to investor clients — are separated from the firms’ business groups that generate fees by providing various services to some of the same companies the analysts cover. But there is still a far greater tendency for these so-called sell-side analysts to assign “buy” or equivalent “overweight” ratings than “sell” or equivalent “underweight” ratings.</p>\n<p>Among the S&P 500, 270 companies have majority “buy” or equivalent ratings among analysts polled by FactSet, but only two (American Airlines Group Inc.AAL,+6.09%and Lumen Technologies Inc.LUMN,+2.44%) have majority “sell” or equivalent ratings.</p>\n<p>An increase in the number of “buy” ratings doesn’t necessarily mean all the new “buys” resulted from upgrades. The number of analysts covering any one company often changes. An analyst might initiate coverage with a “buy” rating. Brokerage firms often add or drop coverage of companies or even entire industries because of staff changes or reallocation of resources.</p>\n<p>Biggest increases in ‘buy’ ratings</p>\n<p>Here’s a list of 22 companies among the S&P 500 that now have at least three more “buy” ratings than they did at the end of 2020:</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n <tr>\n <th>COMPANY</th>\n <th>TICKER</th>\n <th>CHANGE IN NUMBER OF BUY RATINGS</th>\n <th>BUY RATINGS - NOW</th>\n <th>BUY RATINGS - DEC. 31</th>\n <th>% BUY RATINGS</th>\n <th>TOTAL RATINGS - NOW</th>\n <th>TOTAL RATINGS - DEC. 31</th>\n <th>CHANGE IN TOTAL RATINGS</th>\n </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td>CONOCOPHILLIPS</td>\n <td>COP</td>\n <td>5</td>\n <td>27</td>\n <td>22</td>\n <td>96%</td>\n <td>28</td>\n <td>24</td>\n <td>4</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Chevron Corp.</td>\n <td>CVX</td>\n <td>5</td>\n <td>19</td>\n <td>14</td>\n <td>68%</td>\n <td>28</td>\n <td>25</td>\n <td>3</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Intel Corp.</td>\n <td>INTC</td>\n <td>5</td>\n <td>15</td>\n <td>10</td>\n <td>38%</td>\n <td>40</td>\n <td>38</td>\n <td>2</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>PayPal Holdings Inc.</td>\n <td>PYPL</td>\n <td>4</td>\n <td>39</td>\n <td>35</td>\n <td>81%</td>\n <td>48</td>\n <td>45</td>\n <td>3</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>WestRock Co.</td>\n <td>WRK</td>\n <td>4</td>\n <td>12</td>\n <td>8</td>\n <td>71%</td>\n <td>17</td>\n <td>13</td>\n <td>4</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Wells Fargo & Co.</td>\n <td>WFC</td>\n <td>4</td>\n <td>17</td>\n <td>13</td>\n <td>63%</td>\n <td>27</td>\n <td>27</td>\n <td>0</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>CenterPoint Energy Inc.</td>\n <td>CNP</td>\n <td>4</td>\n <td>11</td>\n <td>7</td>\n <td>61%</td>\n <td>18</td>\n <td>17</td>\n <td>1</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Pioneer Natural Resources Co.</td>\n <td>PXD</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>32</td>\n <td>29</td>\n <td>94%</td>\n <td>34</td>\n <td>31</td>\n <td>3</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Activision Blizzard Inc.</td>\n <td>ATVI</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>28</td>\n <td>25</td>\n <td>82%</td>\n <td>34</td>\n <td>31</td>\n <td>3</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc.</td>\n <td>REGN</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>18</td>\n <td>15</td>\n <td>67%</td>\n <td>27</td>\n <td>26</td>\n <td>1</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Dominion Energy Inc.</td>\n <td>D</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>11</td>\n <td>8</td>\n <td>65%</td>\n <td>17</td>\n <td>17</td>\n <td>0</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>PPG Industries Inc.</td>\n <td>PPG</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>17</td>\n <td>14</td>\n <td>63%</td>\n <td>27</td>\n <td>27</td>\n <td>0</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Electronic Arts Inc.</td>\n <td>EA</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>20</td>\n <td>17</td>\n <td>63%</td>\n <td>32</td>\n <td>28</td>\n <td>4</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>NOV Inc.</td>\n <td>NOV</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>14</td>\n <td>11</td>\n <td>58%</td>\n <td>24</td>\n <td>25</td>\n <td>-1</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Corning Inc</td>\n <td>GLW</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>8</td>\n <td>5</td>\n <td>57%</td>\n <td>14</td>\n <td>13</td>\n <td>1</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc.</td>\n <td>CMG</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>19</td>\n <td>16</td>\n <td>54%</td>\n <td>35</td>\n <td>33</td>\n <td>2</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Emerson Electric Co.</td>\n <td>EMR</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>13</td>\n <td>10</td>\n <td>54%</td>\n <td>24</td>\n <td>25</td>\n <td>-1</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Expedia Group Inc.</td>\n <td>EXPE</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>14</td>\n <td>11</td>\n <td>45%</td>\n <td>31</td>\n <td>32</td>\n <td>-1</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Marathon Oil Corp.</td>\n <td>MRO</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>13</td>\n <td>10</td>\n <td>45%</td>\n <td>29</td>\n <td>30</td>\n <td>-1</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Exxon Mobil Corp.</td>\n <td>XOM</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>10</td>\n <td>7</td>\n <td>36%</td>\n <td>28</td>\n <td>26</td>\n <td>2</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Equity Residential</td>\n <td>EQR</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>6</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>27%</td>\n <td>22</td>\n <td>21</td>\n <td>1</td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td>Illinois Tool Works Inc.</td>\n <td>ITW</td>\n <td>3</td>\n <td>5</td>\n <td>2</td>\n <td>23%</td>\n <td>22</td>\n <td>22</td>\n <td>0</td>\n </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>FactSet</p>\n<p>The table is sorted in two ways — first by the increase in the number of “buy” ratings, but then by the current percentage of “buy” ratings.

But over the long haul, investors have profited by holding shares of companies that increase sales, earnings and cash flow. And the resulting increases in analysts’ ratings can help lift stock prices.\nBelow is a list of stocks among the S&P 500SPX,+0.10%that have had the biggest increases in “buy” or equivalent ratings this year among analysts polled by FactSet. An upgrade may mean a stock has fallen enough so that an analyst believes it has become a compelling value. Or it may mean that something has changed for the better in the company’s business or industry. Or it could be a combination these and other factors.\nA focus on the positive side of the ratings action makes sense. Analysts working for brokerage firms — those that provide recommendations to investor clients — are separated from the firms’ business groups that generate fees by providing various services to some of the same companies the analysts cover. But there is still a far greater tendency for these so-called sell-side analysts to assign “buy” or equivalent “overweight” ratings than “sell” or equivalent “underweight” ratings.\nAmong the S&P 500, 270 companies have majority “buy” or equivalent ratings among analysts polled by FactSet, but only two (American Airlines Group Inc.AAL,+6.09%and Lumen Technologies Inc.LUMN,+2.44%) have majority “sell” or equivalent ratings.\nAn increase in the number of “buy” ratings doesn’t necessarily mean all the new “buys” resulted from upgrades. The number of analysts covering any one company often changes. An analyst might initiate coverage with a “buy” rating. Brokerage firms often add or drop coverage of companies or even entire industries because of staff changes or reallocation of resources.\nBiggest increases in ‘buy’ ratings\nHere’s a list of 22 companies among the S&P 500 that now have at least three more “buy” ratings than they did at the end of 2020:\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nCHANGE IN NUMBER OF BUY RATINGS\nBUY RATINGS - NOW\nBUY RATINGS - DEC. 31\n% BUY RATINGS\nTOTAL RATINGS - NOW\nTOTAL RATINGS - DEC. 31\nCHANGE IN TOTAL RATINGS\n\n\n\n\nCONOCOPHILLIPS\nCOP\n5\n27\n22\n96%\n28\n24\n4\n\n\nChevron Corp.\nCVX\n5\n19\n14\n68%\n28\n25\n3\n\n\nIntel Corp.\nINTC\n5\n15\n10\n38%\n40\n38\n2\n\n\nPayPal Holdings Inc.\nPYPL\n4\n39\n35\n81%\n48\n45\n3\n\n\nWestRock Co.\nWRK\n4\n12\n8\n71%\n17\n13\n4\n\n\nWells Fargo & Co.\nWFC\n4\n17\n13\n63%\n27\n27\n0\n\n\nCenterPoint Energy Inc.\nCNP\n4\n11\n7\n61%\n18\n17\n1\n\n\nPioneer Natural Resources Co.\nPXD\n3\n32\n29\n94%\n34\n31\n3\n\n\nActivision Blizzard Inc.\nATVI\n3\n28\n25\n82%\n34\n31\n3\n\n\nRegeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc.\nREGN\n3\n18\n15\n67%\n27\n26\n1\n\n\nDominion Energy Inc.\nD\n3\n11\n8\n65%\n17\n17\n0\n\n\nPPG Industries Inc.\nPPG\n3\n17\n14\n63%\n27\n27\n0\n\n\nElectronic Arts Inc.\nEA\n3\n20\n17\n63%\n32\n28\n4\n\n\nNOV Inc.\nNOV\n3\n14\n11\n58%\n24\n25\n-1\n\n\nCorning Inc\nGLW\n3\n8\n5\n57%\n14\n13\n1\n\n\nChipotle Mexican Grill Inc.\nCMG\n3\n19\n16\n54%\n35\n33\n2\n\n\nEmerson Electric Co.\nEMR\n3\n13\n10\n54%\n24\n25\n-1\n\n\nExpedia Group Inc.\nEXPE\n3\n14\n11\n45%\n31\n32\n-1\n\n\nMarathon Oil Corp.\nMRO\n3\n13\n10\n45%\n29\n30\n-1\n\n\nExxon Mobil Corp.\nXOM\n3\n10\n7\n36%\n28\n26\n2\n\n\nEquity Residential\nEQR\n3\n6\n3\n27%\n22\n21\n1\n\n\nIllinois Tool Works Inc.\nITW\n3\n5\n2\n23%\n22\n22\n0\n\n\n\nFactSet\nThe table is sorted in two ways — first by the increase in the number of “buy” ratings, but then by the current percentage of “buy” ratings.

But over the long haul, investors have profited by holding shares of companies that increase sales, earnings and cash flow. And the resulting increases in analysts’ ratings can help lift stock prices.\nBelow is a list of stocks among the S&P 500SPX,+0.10%that have had the biggest increases in “buy” or equivalent ratings this year among analysts polled by FactSet. An upgrade may mean a stock has fallen enough so that an analyst believes it has become a compelling value. Or it may mean that something has changed for the better in the company’s business or industry. Or it could be a combination these and other factors.\nA focus on the positive side of the ratings action makes sense. Analysts working for brokerage firms — those that provide recommendations to investor clients — are separated from the firms’ business groups that generate fees by providing various services to some of the same companies the analysts cover. But there is still a far greater tendency for these so-called sell-side analysts to assign “buy” or equivalent “overweight” ratings than “sell” or equivalent “underweight” ratings.\nAmong the S&P 500, 270 companies have majority “buy” or equivalent ratings among analysts polled by FactSet, but only two (American Airlines Group Inc.AAL,+6.09%and Lumen Technologies Inc.LUMN,+2.44%) have majority “sell” or equivalent ratings.\nAn increase in the number of “buy” ratings doesn’t necessarily mean all the new “buys” resulted from upgrades. The number of analysts covering any one company often changes. An analyst might initiate coverage with a “buy” rating.
