UPDATE: Susquehanna Raises PT on Aetna Ahead of 3Q Results Report

In a report published Wednesday, Susquehanna International Group analyst Chris Rigg reiterated a Positive rating on Aetna (NYSE: AET), and raised the price target from $74.00 to $76.00.

In the report, Susquehanna International Group noted, “We expect the managed care group will post solid third quarter results beginning when UNH kicks of earnings on October 17.

Aetna closed on Tuesday at $64.28.
