Guggenheim analyst Michael Morris upgraded Universal Music Group (UMGNF) to Buy from Neutral with an unchanged price target of EUR 20. The firm’s incrementally positive view reflects confidence in the company’s core business and intellectual property base, the analyst tells investors. In addition, the EUR 500M share buyback announced yesterday provides “an incremental indicator of financial discipline and a balanced view of the highest-return capital deployment opportunity,” the analyst added.
