The upgrade in the mean analyst recommendation has led to a current consensus forecast of $10. Apparently, BMO is not one of the included analysts since their forecast of $13 for COT exceeds the $11 high of 6 analysts. The distribution of recommendations at 1,3, and 4 for strong buy, buy and hold is currently the same as 3 months ago. COT's stock price has risen noticeably over the last 3 months.
