For today’s edition of our upgrade list, we used our website’s advanced screening functions to search for UPGRADES to BUY or STRONG BUY with complete forecast and valuation data. They are presented by one-month forecast return. The Gap (GPS) is our top-rated upgrade this week and it is a STRONG BUY. Boot Brands (BOOT ) and Tailored Brands (TLRD) are our other STRONG BUY upgrades for the day. We also have Sandy Spring (SASR) and Noble Group LTD (NOBGY) as BUY upgrades for today-but note that Noble does not have full valuation and forecast data and has been included to fill out our list.
