Under Armour (UA)

It's not all bad news for Under Armour in the past 24 hours. Brand ambassador Stephen Curry's Golden State Warriors lost to Nike's (NKE) LeBron James' Cleveland Cavaliers last night in the NBA finals. It's the fourth time this year one of the company's big-name endorsers disappointed fans. Some are even saying there's an "Under Armour curse".

But Buckingham analyst Scott Krasik is bullish on the stock and it's up today. Krasik upgraded his rating on Under Armour to a "buy". And he raised his price target to $48 from $44, a 29% increase from Friday's close. Krasik expects improving margins to start by the end of this year.
