Deutsche Bank Upgrades Cincinnati Financial (CINF) to 'Hold' Following Share Price Decline

Deutsche Bank upgraded Cincinnati Financial (NASDAQ: CINF) from Sell to Hold, price target lowered by $1 to $23.00.

Deutsche analyst says, "Shares of Cincinnati Financial fell 11% during the 8/4-8 market plunge. Including the dividend, we believe downside is less than 5% (at these market levels), following the 8/9 market rally. Further, while CinFin's recent decline was in-line with the S&P 500's 3-day decline, it outperformed financials over that stretch. The stock now trades at 86% of 3Q11 book, a fair valuation for a company whose results have correlated with the market, albeit at a lower beta."
