Comcast has declined 26.1% over the past 52 weeks, considerably underperforming both the S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) 16.9% rise and the State Street Communication Services Select Sector SPDR ETF’s (XLC) 19.4% uptick over the same time period.

Shares of Comcast plunged 3.1% on Nov. 3, after a series of analysts cut their price targets on the stock, citing concerns about the company’s broadband business. Barclays PLC (BCS) lowered its price target on the stock to $30 from $34, while Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft (DB) also adjusted its target down to $40 from $44.

Among 30 analysts covering the stock, nine recommend "Strong Buy," 20 suggest "Hold,” and one advises a “Strong Sell” rating.
