Momenta upgraded to Overweight from Equal Weight at Barclays

Barclays analyst Douglas Tsao upgraded Momenta Pharmaceuticals to Overweight after attending the consolidated Copaxone 40mg trial. The analyst sees low risk of Momenta being blocked from the 40mg opportunity past 2018 and views the stock's risk/reward as "compelling" at current levels. Tsao believes there is a "good likelihood" that Sandoz, Momenta's partner, launches Copaxone 40mg at-risk as soon as February 2017 upon FDA approval when the 30-month stay expires. The analyst raised his price target for Momenta shares to $19 from $13.
