Friday's Analysts' Upgrades, Downgrades

Change in Ratings

Entergy(ETR Quote) upgraded at UBS to buy rating from neutral. Price target and fiscal-year 2008 EPS estimates hold at $125 and $6.70, respectively.

Graftech International(GTI Quote) downgraded at Oppenheimer from outperform to perform. Company posted a strong quarter, but lacks further potential catalysts.
