All times ET. 5:52 a.m.: BMO Capital Markets initiates coverage of Old Dominion Freight Line Old Dominion Freight Line is set to outperform moving forward as the freight industry begins to recover, according to BMO Capital Markets. Analyst Fadi Chamoun initiated coverage of the truckload shipping company with an outperform rating and $210 price target. That suggests 22.2% potential upside for the stock, which has shed more than 15% this year. “ODFL has consistently been among the top three performing transport stocks over the past three freight cycles, having returned 4,594% since January 2009 … With the freight cycle having likely bottomed and considering the recent pullback in valuation, we believe the risk/reward is favorable for this premier transport franchise,” analyst Fadi Chamoun wrote in a note. Chamoun pointed to favorable less-than-truckload shipments, or LTL, industry characteristics, saying the industry is poised to benefit from long-term tailwinds such as consolidation and potential near-shoring of manufacturing. Old Dominion Freight Line’s strong free cash flow generation and high return on investment capital are among the company’s traits that support its “long-term value creation,” the analyst said. — Pia Singh 5:46 a.m.: Bernstein reiterates This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up as its top pick among digital ad beneficiaries This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ******** Bernstein’s top pick among its coverage of major tech companies as the group saw a bounce back in digital advertising this year.

The change comes after Sunoco completed its takeover of NuStar Energy, a deal that valued the latter company at more than $7 billion. “We view the acquisition as a transformational deal and see SUN as a more diversified entity with increased stability, scale, and growth opportunities, with particularly attractive synergy capture potential,” analyst Jeremy Tonet wrote. “We expect SUN to pair its strong positioning in the fuel distribution and logistics sector with NS midstream assets to streamline and vertically integrate the business,” Tonet said. Sunoco shares have struggled this year, losing more than 15%.
