UPDATE: Barclays Downgrades Questar (STR) to Equalweight; Fairly Valued at Current Levels

(Updated - July 17, 2012 2:39 PM EDT)

Barclays downgraded Questar (NYSE: STR) from Overweight to Equalweight with a price target of $20.00.

Analyst, Richard Gross, said, "Post-spin of QEP Resources (NYSE: QEP), the remaining STR was a new story to investors as the Questar name had been branded as an E&P company for the last decade. Management has taken a proactive approach in educating investors about the "new" Questar and we believe the stock is fairly priced subsequent to the stock's appreciation of 46% vs. SPX of 32% since the close of the transaction."
