Citadel Securities upgraded Molina Healthcare (NYSE: MOH) from Reduce to Neutral with a price target of $21.00.

Citadel analyst says, "Poor earnings quality metrics combined with a heightened valuation resulted in the recent weakness in the shares, in our view. While we see continued earnings risk in 2H11, a potential near-term catalyst with TX Medicaid awards and a more reasonable valuation cause us to raise our rating on MOH shares to Neutral."
