Goldman Sachs downgraded HCA Holdings (NYSE: HCA) to Neutral with a price target of $31 (down from $40) following weak results.

The firm comments, "While HCA stock sold off (-19% today vs. SP500 -0.6%), more than the 2Q miss (-5% on EBITDA, -14% on EPS) would imply, the weaker than-expected results come just four months after the IPO and we think will cost HCA credibility among investors that will take substantial time to re-build (in particular, the hoped-for ‘beat and raise’ element of the story)."
