Deutsche Bank downgraded ASML Inc. (NASDAQ: ASML) from Hold to Sell.
The firm comments, "Despite ASML's strong industry position, we see 2013 consensus expectations as too bullish. Slowing 32/28nm foundry capacity additions and an only modest 22/20nm ramp in H213 could drive a sustained foundry slowdown over the next 6-12mths. With secular demand headwinds also muting memory spending, in our view, ASML's 2013 EPS could decline yoy; we are 27% below consensus. After strong share price performance, we recommend taking profit and lower our recommendation from Hold to Sell."
Price target lowered from E40 to E35.
