Curtiss-Wright downgraded to Equal Weight from Overweight at Morgan Stanley

Morgan Stanley analyst Kristine Liwag downgraded Curtiss-Wright to Equal Weight from Overweight with a price target of $188, up from $187. The analyst remains bullish on the continued aerospace recovery post COVID-19. Aircraft scarcity in the midst of strong demand makes aerospace "both a growth and defensive industry in 2023," Liwag tells investors in a research note. The analyst made several rating changes after "scrubbing valuation" heading into 2023.
