JPMorgan Names Top U.S. Auto Suppliers Amid Industry Shifts
JPMorgan analyst Rajat Gupta identified top U.S. auto suppliers, highlighting BWA and DAN.

DAN is noted for its insulation from trade pressures and improved non-automotive exposure, with a $40 price target. Both companies reported strong Q2 results and raised full-year outlooks.
