T. Rowe Stock Gets a Downgrade


Analysts at Credit Suisse have lowered their rating on T. Rowe Price from outperform to neutral, citing the Baltimore fund firm's high sensitivity to retail investors. "Despite a strong focus in the attractive Target Date Fund and 401(k) markets, we believe T. Rowe Price's overall exposure to the retail consumer has caused an increasing risk to organic growth," the analysts wrote in a report published in Barron's. The analysts revised their 2008/2009 earnings-per-share estimates to $2.60/$3.06 from $2.71/$3.22 and their price target to $55 from $57.
