Jefferies assumes coverage on Discover Financial (NYSE: DFS) with a Buy rating and $28 price target (up from $18).

The firm comments, "DFS's early stage delinquencies and roll rates continue to improve, outpacing all other credit card trusts. Although we view the current early stage delinquencies and loss severities as unsustainable over the long term, we are projecting DFS to have the longest runway prior to credit normalization out of all major credit card lenders."
