Standpoint Research downgraded Energizer (NYSE: ENR) from Buy to Hold.

The firm states, "ENR was a defensive name from the consumer staples sector that we added to our portfolio of open recommendations when the S&P hit 1300 in order to hedge our high-beta recommendations. We can no longer leave our highest recommendation attached to this name with the stock + 1500 bps for us versus the S&P. Our price target on ENR remains $85-$90 for 2012-2013. The shares remain undervalued, but may struggle to out-perform the S&P further (going forward) if the market rebounds. The shares have jumped 10% this week and we want to lock this in along with the gain versus the S&P since early June.
