SBB, the landlord at the center of Sweden’s property crisis, has been upgraded to hold because “the sell case seems played out,” equity analysts at DNB Bank ASA said in a note to clients.

The analysts also said that “the near-term risk/reward” has less appeal given the stock is now priced like an option. In the same note, Niklas Wetterling and Simen Mortensen cut the target price on Samhallsbyggnadsbolaget i Norden AB — as the company is formally known — to 3.1 Swedish kronor ($0.29) a share from 4 kronor citing “material refinancing risks.”
