Stifel analyst Ruben Roy lowered his expectations for AMD's second quarter and assumptions for the second half of the year. However, while the bank lowered its outlook for AMD in 2023, it has already transferred a large portion of its assumed revenue for 2023 to 2024. The new target price of $98 is based on a new 2024 earnings per share of $4.1, which is 24 times the earnings per share.

2. Truist: Maintains a buy rating and a target price of $154 for Spotify

Truist stated that Spotify's monthly active users and subscriber metrics are better than expected, as engagement remains high and advertising revenue is better than feared.
