Advanced Micro Devices – The chipmaker's stock was downgraded to "underweight" from "neutral" at Morgan Stanley, saying it has been skeptical that AMD could earn enough to justify its valuation but was keeping it at "equal weight" while its estimates were above Street consensus. That is no longer the case, resulting in the downgrade.

Wells Fargo – The bank may rid itself of a restriction put in place after last year's sales scandal, according to a Reuters report.
