BUZZ-Top of the Street: Intertek, Hannover Re, Fiat Chrysler
A round-up of notable broker activity this morning from Europe's top-ranked* analysts:
** Intertek Group: Credit Suisse cuts to "underperform" saying that co is the most exposed to increasing global trade risks in its sub-sector due to its exposure to consumer and electrical products
** Hannover Re: in a note titled "quality at a price" Credit Suisse says that co's quality franchise is now better reflected in the share price, cuts stock to "neutral"
** FCA: "Meaningful upside from here looks increasingly dependent on FCA's ability to deliver supernormal profits or black swan events such as an M&A exit," says Jefferies, downgrading to "hold"
