Pivotal Research downgraded Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) from Buy to Hold with a price target of $30.00 (from $30.00).
The firm comments, "Changes to our recommendation on Facebook primarily reflect the absence of change in our view on the stock given its recent run-up towards the $30 target we set in October. While we derive this target with more conservative long-term assumptions the company's long-term top-line prospects, these are offset by a slightly reduced cost of capital. But regardless of the quasi-academic nature of this approach, $30 feels to us like the right level for the stock to end 2013."
