Victoria’s Secret parent L Brands Inc. plunged as much as 9.5% Friday after Credit Suisse’s Michael Binetti joined just three other analysts in the bearish camp. The company has eight buy ratings, 16 holds, and 4 sells, according to Bloomberg data.

Binetti’s new 12-month price target of $14 matched the Street-low held by Jefferies analyst Randal Konik, who warned that the bears still “may not be bearish enough.”
