Compass Point downgraded Green Dot (NYSE: GDOT) from Buy to Neutral, price target cut from $43 to $30.

Analyst, Douglas Greiner, said, "Green Dot is positioned to continue winning share of the untapped unbanked market of 17M households. Although, penetration is already more than 10M households. To further drive growth, the company targets the larger underbanked market of 143M households. This market is highly competitive and Green Dot is working to develop a differentiated offering (in part through Loopt), but future success is uncertain and the transitional period warrants caution."
