Jeffries heads to the Boston Beer sideline.
The stock price fell more than 4% earlier after analyst Kaumil Gajrawala downgraded the company’s stock rating from “buy” to “hold.” His updated price target still reflects more than 7% upside from Thursday’s closing price.

KeyBanc Capital Markets says recent consumer survey data on iPhone sales shows a lack of growth for Apple.
Shares fell nearly 1% in the premarket session after analyst Brandon Nispel downgraded the mega-cap tech stock from sector weight to underweight, with his updated price target as of Thursday’s close. This reflects a future decline of more than 13%.
Citing data from the company’s September consumer iPhone survey, Nispel believes the iPhone SE is “not purely additive” to overall iPhone sales. The survey found that 59% of respondents are interested in upgrading to iPhone 16. Additionally, of those likely or very likely to upgrade to iPhone 16, 61% are interested in iPhone SE.
“We believe this indicates that iPhone SE sales are not increasing and could possibly cannibalize iPhone 16 sales,” the analyst said in a note Thursday. “In our view, if the iPhone SE is successful, contrary to consensus, iPhone sales may increase, but (average selling price) may decline.”
