"We're upgrading CCI to Overweight after a compelling Q2 which shows cost-cutting efforts ahead of plan, which provides upside to our 2025-2027 numbers and makes for a compelling relative valuation story.

Mizuho upgrades Travel & Leisure to outperform from neutral Mizuho sees earnings growth for the timeshare company. "We are upgrading TNL to Outperform from Neutral."
