JPMorgan’s (JPM) Philip Cusick upgraded shares of DISH Network Corp (DISH) from a “Neutral” rating to an “Overweight” rating in a report released on Monday, citing several possible drivers for a higher PPS over the next four to eight quarters. The investment firm’s analyst, who sees an attractive and strong risk-reward dynamic on the satellite TV operator’s stock at its current sub-$60 trading level, currently has a $72.00 p/sh DISH PT from $61.00.

In wireless, while we don’t expect Dish to sell its spectrum, we also don’t see the company actually building a stand-alone wireless network and find it most likely that Dish will partner with another carrier to light up its spectrum and possibly wholesale capacity and/or other spectrum,” Cusick commented.Shares of Dish Network ticked up 1.17% to $59.62 Monday morning.
