(NYSE:BRO) to Outperform from Neutral. It raised the stock\u2019s price target to $85 from $84. The firm made the change after adjusting ratings across the insurance property and casualty sector following the recent selloff. The analyst said insurance brokers that focus on middle-market and large accounts face a \u201clow disruption threat\u201d from AI. He also noted that disintermediation risk is \u201cgeared to mass market personal lines and the smaller end of SME.\u201d This suggests that companies like Brown &amp; Brown, which focus on larger clients, remain relatively well-positioned.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->On February 17, J.
