Goldman Sachs upgraded Progressive Corp. (NYSE: PGR) from Neutral to Buy with a price target of $28.00.

Analyst Michael Nannizzi said, "We are upgrading PGR to Buy and raising our 12-month price target to $28 on our view of strength in personal lines, a surprisingly strong capital deployment story, and seasonal strength for PGR’s recreationally-heavy book of exposures. Although competition is heating up in PGR’s Agency business, we believe the downside risk is manageable given our otherwise favorable view."
