Love at Second Sight: Bumble Stock Is Buzzing Again

Sometimes making a coupling work is all about second chances, and apparently Wall Street is ready to give Bumble (NASDAQ: BMBL) another shot. J.P. Morgan analyst Cory Carpenter upgraded shares of the world's second largest player in online dating apps on Tuesday, boosting his rating from neutral to overweight. His $55 price target translated into 65% in upside from Monday's close. 

Carpenter isn't the lone suitor here. This is the third week in a row that Bumble stock has been upgraded by a Wall Street pro. Bumble initially took off after going public at $43 earlier this year, but it's been a broken initial public offering (IPO) for the past four weeks.
