Jefferies initiates coverage on Dow Chemical (NYSE: DOW) with a Hold and $27 price target.

The analyst comments, "Dow aims to be a better shepherd of capital and assets. The strategy is coherent, but implies choices the market will debate: a tough way to expand valuation multiples. With the ethylene peak still ahead, the market is offering a cyclical trade. We risk being too cute on timing, but we think there will be a better entry point within 6 months."
