  • Weekly Ratings, Targets, Forecast Changes
    Weekly Ratings, Targets, Forecast Changes Sep 03, 2018 By Rudi Filapek-Vandyck, Editor FNArena Guide: The FNArena database tabulates the views of eight major Australian and international stock brokers: Citi, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Macquarie, Morgan Stanley, Morgans, Ord Minnett and UBS. For the purpose of broker rating correlation, Outperform and Overweight ratings are grouped as Buy, Neutral is grouped with Hold and Underperform and Underweight are grouped as Sell to provide a Buy/Hold/Sell (B/H/S) ratio. Ratings, consensus target price and forecast earnings tables are published at the bottom of this report. Summary Period: Monday August 27 to Friday August 31, 2018 Total Upgrades: 16 Total Downgrades: 24 Net Ratings Breakdown: Buy 40.93%; Hold 43.41%; Sell 15.67% Securities analysts in Australia are still issuing more recommendation downgrades than upgrades, but at least the gap between the two is narrowing noticeably. In contrast to prior weeks, both tables for the week ending Friday, 31st August 2018, are populated by stocks receiving multiple switches in stockbroker ratings. FNArena counted 16 upgrades and 24 downgrades pulling the ratio for the four weeks of August just below 1:2. Receiving multiple upgrades were ambitious gold miner Northern Star Resources (2x) and Regis Resources (gold and nickel) and Sims Metal Management (scrap) with the latter two enjoying three upgrades post results releases. Only six of the 16 upgrades involves a Buy rating. On the flipside,FNArena nutritional supplements provider Blackmores was downgraded three times during the week, of which two downgrades moved to Sell, while fruit and veggies grower Costa Group was downgraded twice, both to Neutral/Hold; troubled contractor RCR Tomlinson was also downgraded twice (one Sell only), while fresh Sell ratings fell upon the likes of Bega Cheese, WiseTech Global, Qube Holdings, Virgin Australia and Reliance Worldwide.
