Market Focus10-31 03:27

On October 31, Carpenter Technology fell 5.09% in Regular Trading, trading around $283.29, with turnover of $240 million.

The move came as the market continued to digest a recent analyst downgrade alongside earnings details that pointed to a slower near-term growth slope.

Recently, KeyBanc downgraded Carpenter Technology to Sector Weight from Overweight and removed its $465 price target. Earlier, Deutsche Bank cut its price target to $361 from $555 while maintaining a Buy rating. In its latest fiscal first-quarter report, Carpenter Technology posted EPS of $3.25, above consensus, but revenue of $798.2 million missed the expected $830.8 million. The company also guided fiscal second-quarter operating income to $192 million-$197 million, below the $203.2 million market expectation, while maintaining its full-year fiscal operating income outlook of $850 million-$880 million.
