$BKU got a lift today with analysts raising their EPS estimate and moving the stock up to a Hold rating. At $38.46, shares are slightly in the red, but this upgrade signals stabilizing confidence in BankUnited earnings trajectory as regional banks navigate a shifting rate environment.

$COUR surged an eye-popping 36% to $12.37 after BofA upgraded Coursera, following its Q2 beat and an uptick in consumer growth. The market is clearly rewarding this improved growth outlook, and the volume spike to over 24 million shows traders are taking this momentum seriously.

$CRWD saw its outlook raised to positive by Moody’s, with the stock adding 1.27% to close at $467.92. CrowdStrike remains a leader in cybersecurity, and the upgrade reflects confidence in its recurring revenue model and expanding enterprise adoption.

$CVNA received an outperform upgrade from Oppenheimer, with a view of nearly 40% upside ahead. Carvana, trading at $332.12, gained 1.85% as Oppenheimer sees the company expanding market share in the used-car sector, with operational improvements supporting this bullish thesis.

$CYTK has been labeled a speculative buy, with shares closing at $37.18, down slightly on the day. Cytokinetics is a biotech that often trades on pipeline catalysts, and the buy rating suggests upside potential if key data or partnership developments materialize.

$PLUG saw renewed analyst optimism, with Susquehanna raising its price target and Jefferies nearly doubling theirs, propelling shares up 3.95% to $1.84. Despite dilution concerns, Plug Power’s recent strategic supply agreement and tailwinds from hydrogen tax credits are providing momentum for a potential turnaround.
