(NASDAQ: VIA) from Underweight to Overweight, while reducing the price target from $67 to $56.Analyst Kannan Venkateshwar said that the earlier Underweight rating reflected the structural shift that the media ecosystem was undergoing and the fact that Viacom had the most exposure to these shifts. "At present levels however the stock is starting to price in extreme scenarios," warranting the upgrade in rating, Venkateshwar explained.In the report Barclays cited the two "biggest fundamental sources of uncertainty" for Viacom as the growth rates in domestic advertising and in affiliate fees.
