Deutsche Bank upgraded Gap, Inc. (NYSE: GPS) from Sell to Hold. PT $18.

Deutsche analyst says, "We’re upgrading GPS to Hold, after Friday’s ~17.5% stock decline now implies 12.8x our FY11 EPS forecast and is within 6.5% of our $18 PT. While after last Thursday’s release many questions remain about the company, valuation and a re-set EPS bar provide a near-term baseline. Maintain $18 price target, with further downside risk from negative sentiment on apparel stocks, balanced by valuation in-line with what we believe investors are willing to pay for the stock."
