Collins Stewart downgraded LDK Solar (NYSE: LDK) to Sell. PT lowered from $12 to $9.50.

Collins analyst says, "Given our concerns that LDK is poorly position for a downturn and out belief that spot market wafer demand will slow dramatically in the months ahead, we are downgrading our rating to Sell. In a downturn, LDK's highly levered balance sheet ($1.2B of ST debt, $2.2B of total debt) may become an issue. If its income statement should falter."
