Goldman Sachs Downgrades This Airline Citing Cost Pressure

Goldman Sachs analyst Catherine O'Brien downgraded Southwest Airlines Co LUV to Neutral from Buy and lowered the price target to $59 (implying an upside of 20%) from $63.
The analyst expects greater cost pressure associated with the company's short-term labor ramp-up and IT investments than previously forecasted.
O'Brien says this will weigh on Southwest's medium-term profitability, which will result in the shares underperforming versus other airlines.
