What's Going On With Lululemon Stock?

Lululemon Athletica Inc. LULU shares are trading higher Friday as the stock attempts to recover some of the week's losses following a slew of price target reductions from analysts. 

The Details:

Lululemon shares fell 9% Thursday as investors digested a slew of analysts' downgrades and price reductions.
