Jefferies maintained a Hold rating on Community Health (NYSE: CYH) and raised its price target to $29.00 (from $26.00).

"While CYH's relatively easy 'comps' in 2H12 and the modest improvement in employment levels could provide a slight tailwind for the stock in the next few months, we find it difficult to get more aggressive with our rating on the stock, at least for the time being, given our expectation for heightened share price volatility in the next four weeks as ongoing discussions and debates leading to the elections," said analyst Brian Tanquilut.
