Emerson Electric upgraded to Overweight from Equal Weight at Morgan Stanley

Morgan Stanley upgraded Emerson Electric (EMR) to Overweight from Equal Weight with a price target of $96, up from $95. The stock’s risk/reward is among the best in the sector with the National Instruments (NATI) resolution potentially being a "win-win as management lands an accretive deal or establishes its discipline," the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says Emerson’s fundamentals are accelerating, particularly with liquified natural gas and hydrogen. It sees an attractive risk/reward at current share levels.
