Zacks reiterated its neutral rating on shares of Volcano (VOLC). They have a $28.00 price target on the stock. Zacks' analyst wrote, "Volcano's third quarter performance was mixed with EPS of $0.04 lagging the year-ago $0.05 but in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Revenues of $93.7 million were up 12% at CER but missed the consensus of $95 million. Meanwhile, we are impressed with the company's pipeline development, of which many products are slated for release over the next few quarters. We also believe that favorable industry trends should aid the growth of the company. At present clinicians and hospitals are facing increasing pressure to justify the medical necessity of PCI therapy. However, several challenges currently at play forced the company to lower its 2012 outlook. Moreover, margins still remain under pressure. Although the situation is set to improve by year end, amidst tough competitive landscape, we maintain our Neutral recommendation on the stock. "

Argus downgraded shares of Vertex Pharmaceuticals (VRTX) from a buy rating to a hold rating.
