BUZZ-G4S: hits more than 2-yr low as star analyst cuts target

** Security group G4S (Copenhagen: G4S.CO - news) down 5.5% at levels not seen since July 2013 and worst performer on FTSE 100

** RBC (Other OTC: RBCI - news) , rated at 5 stars for recommendation accuracy on G4S, according to StarMine, lowers TP to 210p v 230p, repeats "underperform"

** Flags poor performance this yr (-10% v FTSE 100), but full valuation relative to peers, as well as little contract news, softness in regions like LatAm and Africa of late

** G4S suffers biggest one-day drop since July 2013

** Most actively traded UK blue-chip stock, with about half of its 90-day daily avg through 1 hour 20 mins (Reuters Messaging: rahul.b.thomsonreuters.com@reuters.net)
