** Wells Fargo cuts PT on credit scoring giant Fair Isaac Corp FICO.N to $2,300 from $2,500 which is still a 91.6% upside to the stock's last close
** Brokerage cuts PT to reflect lower peer multiples
** Wells Fargo sees minimal incentive for lenders to switch from FICO, even with VantageScore priced lower to increase score competition in the mortgage market
** "We still see hurdles to avoid "cherry-picking", where lenders pull both a FICO and VS to only submit the more favorable one which reduces the reliability of the score" - Wells Fargo
** 15 of 22 analysts rate stock "strong buy" or "buy", six "hold" and one "sell"; their median PT is $1,983.5 - data compiled by LSEG
** As of last close, stock down 29% YTD
