Overnight Price: $27.03

Morgans rates ANZ as Add (1) -

Morgans retains its Overweight stance on the major banks given robust dividend yields and potential for further capital management. Medium-term cost efficiency is also on the up, and considered attractive.

The analyst expects a rising interest rate environment will support earnings, the only negative being intense mortgage competition. However, the aforementioned tailwinds should largely offset this.

The broker maintains an Add rating and $31 target price for ANZ Bank. Westpac Bank ((WBC)) is Morgans preferred exposure in the sector.

IT & Support

Overnight Price: $9.75

Citi rates APX as Buy (1) -

At first glance, Citi says Amazon’s entry into the fully managed data-labeling service space appears negative for Appen in terms of additional required investment and overall competition.

However, Citi says Amazon's entry also indicates continuing demand for Appen's services, despite concerns about self-learning systems. 

While there may be more competition in the Enterprise space, competition with the company's major technology customers shouldn't be impacted, according to Citi. Buy rating and $17.10 target price are retained.

Target price is $17.10 Current Price is $9.75 Difference: $7.35
If APX meets the Citi target it will return approximately 75% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Morgan Stanley rates BHP as No Rating (-1) -

BHP's board has decided that BHP Limited shares will replace BHP PLC shares upon unification, pending UK court and National Treasury of South Africa approval.

Morgan Stanley expects the deal, combined with the potential petroleum demerger and sale of thermal coal operations, will boost BHP's ESG credentials and simplify its structure.

The company plans to publish a prospectus for new LTD shares for PLC shares most likely on December 8, along with a Petroleum proforma release.

General meetings will be held on January 20, and it is expected January 28 will be the last day of PLC share trading prior to unification on January 31.

Management expects the shift should increase BHP's weighting in the S&P/ASX200.

Ord Minnett rates BHP as No Rating (-1) -

Ord Minnett has made material reductions to its China steel production assumptions. As a result, the strategists have lowered iron ore price forecasts by -12% to US$92/t in 2022 and by -10% to US$90/t in FY23.

Morgans retains an Overweight stance on the major banks, citing robust dividend yields, potential for further capital management, and better medium-term cost efficiency.

CSL  CSL LIMITED

Pharmaceuticals & Biotech/Lifesciences

More Research Tools In Stock Analysis - click HERE

Overnight Price: $297.67

Citi rates CSL as Neutral (3) -

While CSL neither confirmed nor denied recent press speculation about a potential bid for Switzerland-listed Vifor Pharma, Citi estimates any transaction would likely be EPS accretive given CSL's significantly higher multiple to Vifor.

Neutral rating and $325 target are maintained.

Target price is $325.00 Current Price is $297.67 Difference: $27.33
If CSL meets the Citi target it will return approximately 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Credit Suisse rates CSL as Neutral (3) -

The press is speculating CSL will take over Swiss pharma company Vifor. Neither company has commented, but Vifor shares jumped 21%.

Vifor Pharma is one of the largest Swiss pharmaceutical companies and a global leader in the treatment of iron deficiency. It has established a presence in the nephrology market and seeks to attain global leadership in the segment of cardiorenal therapies.

While Vifor is a market leader in IV iron therapy and focuses on rare diseases, iron deficiency, nephrology and cardio-renal are very different therapeutic areas from CSL's, the broker notes. If CSL were to pursue such an acquisition, it would be a significant shift from its core competency and core therapeutic areas.

Hence little room for synergies, making CSL's rationale unclear. Neutral and $315 target retained.

Target price is $315.00 Current Price is $297.67 Difference: $17.33
If CSL meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately 6% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Current consensus price target is $311.23, suggesting upside of 5.5% (ex-dividends)

IAG  INSURANCE AUSTRALIA GROUP LIMITED

Insurance

More Research Tools In Stock Analysis - click HERE

Overnight Price: $4.47

Morgan Stanley rates IAG as Downgrade to Underweight from Equal-weight (5) -

Morgan Stanley downgrades IAG to non-consensus Underweight and cuts the target price to $3.75 from $4.80, listing 10 contributing factors that should increase the company's capital costs and hurt the company's ESG prospects.

The broker cites IAG's skew to CAT-prone short-tail lines, NZ reform risks, higher catastrophe-cost volatility; higher reinsurance pricing and tighter access; quota share reinsurance renewal risks; regulatory risk on personal reinsurance pricing; capital regulatory risk; consumer data right concerns; CDR regulation; reserving risk; and a remuneration report strike.

But wait, there's more.

Morgan Stanley casts a nervous eye to margin headwinds and market share losses; and expects an extended $1.8bn capital buffer may be required to offset reduced capital flexibility - although the release of business interruption combined with the liberation of tax assets could be another option.

Target price is $3.75 Current Price is $4.47 Difference: minus $0.72 (current price is over target).
If IAG meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately minus 16% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Current consensus price target is $5.20, suggesting upside of 20.1% (ex-dividends)

LGL  LYNCH GROUP HOLDING LIMITED

Agriculture

More Research Tools In Stock Analysis - click HERE

Overnight Price: $3.32

Ord Minnett rates LGL as Initiation of coverage with Buy (1) -

Ord Minnett initiates coverage on Lynch Group with a Buy rating and $4.70 target price. The company is a floral supplier within Australia and to China.

The broker is more effusive about the China opportunity, citing a return on invested capital (ROIC) hurdle of more than 25% in a market that is 13 times the size of Australia. Geopolitical risk is thought lessened as 80% of China production is sold domestically.

Ord Minnett says the opportunity in China's highly-fragmented market lies in providing a service that removes various wholesale layers.

Meanwhile, the company is expected to continue gaining Australian retail share as supermarkets garner a greater proportion of sales.

Target price is $4.70 Current Price is $3.32 Difference: $1.38
If LGL meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately 42% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

The company's fiscal year ends in June.

At the last closing share price the stock's estimated Price to Earnings Ratio (PER) is 10.43.

Overnight Price: $5.30

Morgans rates MGH as Add (1) -

Following Maas Group's investor day, Morgans continues to see organic upside potential in the Residential Real Estate business over FY23/24. The Commercial Property pipeline is also expected to generate solid value.

While the analyst's forecasts are unchanged, the Commercial Property opportunity outweighs the effect of a reduction in peer multiples, and Citi raises its target price to $5.85 from $5.65. Add rating is retained.

Target price is $5.85 Current Price is $5.30 Difference: $0.55
If MGH meets the Morgans target it will return approximately 10% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

NAB  NATIONAL AUSTRALIA BANK LIMITED

Banks

Overnight Price: $27.96

Morgans rates NAB as Hold (3) -

Morgans retains its Overweight stance on the major banks, citing robust dividend yields, potential for further capital management, and better medium-term cost efficiency.

The analysts expect a rising interest rate environment will support earnings, the only negative being intense mortgage competition, which should be largely offset by the aforementioned tailwinds.

The broker maintains its Hold rating and $28.50 target price for National Australia Bank. Westpac Bank ((WBC)) is Morgans preferred exposure in the sector.
