Shares of travel technology company Sabre (NASDAQ:SABR)
jumped 3.4% in the morning session after investment firm Bernstein upgraded the travel technology company to 'Outperform' from 'Market Perform', suggesting the market has become too pessimistic on its outlook. The upgrade comes even as Bernstein lowered its price target on the stock to $3.00 from $4.00. The move follows a significant plunge in Sabre's stock, which fell nearly 38% in a single day after a recent disappointing quarterly report that missed profit forecasts. However, Bernstein analysts believe the negative market reaction was overblown, stating the stock is now "oversold" and "too cheap." The firm argues that the market is incorrectly pricing in a structural decline for Sabre's core Global Distribution System (GDS) business. Bernstein sees a path for booking declines to stabilize and noted that the company has no major debt maturities until 2027, providing some financial stability.
