Morgan Stanley rates 360 as Overweight (1) -
After the Andoid App Store reportedly announced a reduction in take rate to 15% from 30% of initial subscriptions, Morgan Stanley feels the odds for its bull case for Life360 are improving.

Target price is $10.50 Current Price is $9.47 Difference: $1.03
If 360 meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately 11% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Banks

Overnight Price: $28.21
Citi rates ANZ as Sell (5) -
Citi's estimates are -1.5% below consensus for the FY21 result. This is largely because of lower markets income expectations.
Mitigating this is lower bad debts and the broker forecasts a provision release of $154m in the fourth quarter.
The bank will report its results on October 28 and Citi retains a Sell rating with a $28 target.
Target price is $28.00 Current Price is $28.21 Difference: minus $0.21 (current price is over target).
If ANZ meets the Citi target it will return approximately minus 1% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).
Current consensus price target is $29.60, suggesting upside of 4.3% (ex-dividends)
The company's fiscal year ends in September.

Overnight Price: $126.00
Morgan Stanley rates APT as No Rating (-1) -
While merchants like Afterpay may chose not to surcharge, Morgan Stanley feels the ability to do so, after the RBA's Retail Payments Review, is a negative for BNPL providers in general. It's thought the reform will place downwards pressure on BNPL industry fees.
The RBA doesn’t have powers to impose the rules as yet, but will work with Treasury to create new regulations.
The broker has no rating or target at present. Industry view: In-Line.
Current Price is $126.00. Target price not assessed.
Current consensus price target is $141.68, suggesting upside of 15.6% (ex-dividends)

Market Sentiment: 0.5
All consensus data are updated until yesterday. FNArena's consensus calculations require a minimum of three sources
UBS rates APT as Neutral (3) -
UBS had always suspected that the "no surcharge" rules of the BNPL sector would eventually be prohibited. The Payments System Board has concluded that it would be the public interest if these rules were removed so that merchants can apply a surcharge to payments if they wish.
The broker considers this is a materially negative development for the likes of Afterpay, particularly given its reliance on high merchant fees to fund its economics, and places completion risk on the proposed acquisition by Square.
UBS retains a Neutral rating and $140 target, based of the takeover offer by Square. This compares with its fundamental valuation of $44 a share.
Target price is $140.00 Current Price is $126.00 Difference: $14
If APT meets the UBS target it will return approximately 11% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $141.68, suggesting upside of 15.6% (ex-dividends)

Overnight Price: $3.65
Macquarie rates AZJ as No Rating (-1) -
Aurizon Holdings has acquired One Rail for $2.35bn. The coal assets will be divested or de-merged after the acquisition. Management expects the transaction to be 10% accretive and bulk earnings should rise by $80m to $220m and increase the bulks share of above-rail revenue to 40%.
One Rail provides intermodal and bulk freight in South Australia Northern Territory as well as operating the track of the Tarcoola to Darwin section. Macquarie is unable to provide a rating or target at present.
Current Price is $3.65. Target price not assessed.
Current consensus price target is $4.40, suggesting upside of 25.1% (ex-dividends)

Market Sentiment: 0.3
All consensus data are updated until yesterday. FNArena's consensus calculations require a minimum of three sources
Morgan Stanley rates AZJ as Underweight (5) -
While Morgan Stanley likes the diversification away from coal there will be higher leverage as a result of Aurizon Holdings' agreement to acquire OneRail. The intention to sell OneRail's coal haulage business is thought to also add divestment execution risk.
The transactions are consistent with the company's stated strategy of growing Bulk (non-coal) earnings, explains the analyst. It's estimated FY23 non-coal earnings (EBITDA) increase to 36% from 31% of Above Rail, including $7-10m of synergies.
The Underweight rating and $3.92 target price are retained. Industry view: Cautious.
Target price is $3.92 Current Price is $3.65 Difference: $0.27
If AZJ meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately 7% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Overnight Price: $1.38
Morgan Stanley rates BPT as Equal-weight (3) -
Morgan Stanley oil strategists expect higher LNG prices and returns for Australian energy companies, as demand for LNG is likely to exceed current expectations. The broker's long-term LNG price forecast rises nearly 30% to US$10/mmbtu.
The broker feels M&A will likely be a key driver of value, as companies look to divest equity ownership in LNG projects and prepare for expansion. Higher JKM LNG forecasts and a higher long-term Brent oil price forecast (US$70/bbl) are used.
After updating for the above, the analyst raises Beach Energy's target price to $1.70 from $1.40 and maintains the Equal-weight rating. Industry view: Attractive.
Target price is $1.70 Current Price is $1.38 Difference: $0.32
If BPT meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately 23% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $1.65, suggesting upside of 12.7% (ex-dividends)

Overnight Price: $20.64
Citi rates BSL as Buy (1) -
Citi updates its modelling following upwardly revised guidance. The company expects first half EBIT in the range of $2.1-2.3bn.
The main driver is North Star spreads, better Australian steel volumes and strong momentum in North American coated products. More detail will be provided at the AGM scheduled for November 18.
Citi maintains a Buy rating and $27.50 target.
Target price is $27.50 Current Price is $20.64 Difference: $6.86

Ord Minnett rates BSL as Buy (1) -
BlueScope raised first half earnings (EBIT) guidance to $2.1-2.3bn from $1.8–2bn, in-line with Ord Minnett's $2.1bn estimate prior to the upgrade. However, the broker forecasts the first half should be the peak half in earnings this cycle. The target falls to $33 from $35.
The analyst reiterates a Buy rating and remains positive on steel market conditions (excluding China), with East Asia prices likely to be supported by any reduction in China exports. It's also noted US steel capacity utilisation rates remain relatively high at 85%
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.
Target price is $33.00 Current Price is $20.64 Difference: $12.36

Overnight Price: $1.10
Ord Minnett rates CRW as Downgrade to Accumulate from Buy (2) -
Ord Minnett believes the takeover offer by ANZ Bank's ((ANZ)) innovation and investment arm, 1835i, for Cashrewards is likely to proceed. This is because the existing 19% shareholder (1835i) is the natural acquirer, and it has recently extended a $15m loan to Cashrewards.
On a reduced likelihood of a superior offer, the broker reduces its rating to Accumulate from Buy and lowers its target price to $1.30 from $2.
Target price is $1.30 Current Price is $1.10 Difference: $0.2
If CRW meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately 18% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Ord Minnett rates SBM as Hold (3) -
After a first glance at St Barbara's Q1 results, Ord Minnett assesses they are slightly better than the broker's expectations. Production was a 12% beat with higher grades at Gwalia more than offsetting lower grades out of Atlantic due to an increased stockpile contribution.
This also led to led to a 10% beat for all-in sustaining costs (AISC) though the analyst points out that cash was a miss due to a combination of lower gold sales, investments, working capital and higher corporate costs. FY22 guidance appears unchanged to the broker.
The Hold rating and $1.50 target price are maintained.
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.
Target price is $1.50 Current Price is $1.54 Difference: minus $0.04 (current price is over target).

Macquarie rates SDF as Outperform (1) -
FY22 guidance has been reaffirmed at underlying EBITA of $320-330m. Macquarie notes underwriting agencies have achieved strong organic growth.
The broker believes upside risk exists to estimates for FY22 and particularly FY23, while factoring in the company executing on the potential $26m of M&A.
Macquarie retains an Outperform rating and $5.30 target.
Target price is $5.30 Current Price is $4.79 Difference: $0.51

Ord Minnett rates SDF as Accumulate (2) -
Following a trading update at Steadfast Group's AGM, Ord Minnett maintains its Accumulate rating and $5.32 target price. FY22 earnings (EBITA) guidance was unchanged and implies to the broker growth of 24% on FY21.
First quarter earnings are 13.4% ahead of the same period last year, and the analyst expects this growth run rate to improve further. This because the Coverforce acquisition was only completed part-way through Q1. Additional small acquisitions are also planned.
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.
Target price is $5.32 Current Price is $4.79 Difference: $0.53
If SDF meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately 11% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Overnight Price: $9.34
Ord Minnett rates SIQ as Accumulate (2) -
SmartGroup Corp has announced the cessation of talks on the non-binding indicative offer from US private equity firm TPG Global and Potential Capital (consortium) for $10.35. This comes as the offer was reduced to $9.25, with no stated reasons.
In an initial reaction, Ord Minnett expects some share price weakness, given shares were trading below $8 prior to the bid. The broker retains its Accumulate rating and $9.85 target price, and as per standard practice, will be reviewing both.
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.

If SIQ meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately 5% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Overnight Price: $4.91
Ord Minnett rates SLA as Downgrade to Accumulate from Buy (2) -
Ord Minnett lowers its rating for Silk Laser Australia to Accumulate from Buy, after a strong recent run in the share price. The target price rises to $5.15 from $4.85, after the September quarter was 5% ahead of the broker's expectations.
The analyst notes the company continues to self-fund growth towards its 150-clinic target from 118.
Target price is $5.15 Current Price is $4.91 Difference: $0.24

Morgan Stanley rates STO as Overweight (1) -
Morgan Stanley oil strategists expect higher LNG prices and returns for Australian energy companies, as demand for LNG is likely to exceed current expectations. The broker's long-term LNG price forecast rises nearly 30% to US$10/mmbtu.
The broker feels M&A will likely be a key driver of value, as companies look to divest equity ownership in LNG projects and prepare for expansion. Higher JKM LNG forecasts and a higher long-term Brent oil price forecast (US$70/bbl) are used.
In particular the broker points to Santos, which has significant LNG exposure, and lifts its target price to $10.20 from $8.60. The Overweight rating is unchanged. Industry view: Attractive.
Target price is $10.20 Current Price is $7.04 Difference: $3.16
If STO meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately 45% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Macquarie rates STX as Outperform (1) -
Strike Energy reported closing cash of $52m at the end of the first quarter. Macquarie notes this is sufficient to get it through the current drilling program until $75m in project finance becomes available to fund West Erregulla surface development.
The broker believes the market is waiting for the company to prove South Erregulla, Project Haber and geothermal and, given some recent disappointments, believes this is understandable.
A successful outcome and South Erregulla should improve sentiment markedly, Macquarie adds. Outperform rating and $0.50 target retained.
Target price is $0.50 Current Price is $0.18 Difference: $0.32
If STX meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately 178% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

TCL TRANSURBAN GROUP LIMITED
Infrastructure & Utilities

Overnight Price: $13.75
Morgans rates TCL as Add (1) -
Transurban Group's first-quarter data reveals continued weak traffic (as expected given lockdowns and former management guidance).
Morgans downgrades FY21 earnings -1% given a traffic recovery is unlikely to outpace higher corporate costs (related to SaaS accounting).
Issuance for the WestConnex acquisition and budget overruns for the West Gate Tunnel Project costs may also weigh.
FY22 earnings -7% and FY23-24 earnings -1% to -2%. Dividend is downgraded 12% to 34c per share.
Target price eases to $14.79 from $14.82.
Add rating retained to reflect a potential total shareholder return of 10% including a 2.5% cash yield, with quarterly CPI increases a potential catalyst.
Target price is $14.79 Current Price is $13.75 Difference: $1.04
If TCL meets the Morgans target it will return approximately 8% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Citi expects Westpac will announce a $5bn off market buyback at the upcoming result on November 1. Management had previously deferred this to address capital management.

If WBC meets the Citi target it will return approximately 17% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Credit Suisse rates WES as Neutral (3) -
Credit Suisse upgrades forecasts following the AGM. A normalisation of expenditure in retail, i.e. Bunnings and Officeworks, could weigh on sentiment over the short term yet the expansion of new and other businesses is where the growth opportunity lies, in the broker's view.
Credit Suisse assesses growth initiatives are developing nicely, particularly Mount Holland lithium, with first sales expected in FY24, the expansion of ammonia production and expansion into adjacencies for the home improvement segments.
The Neutral rating is retained. Target is raised to $60.38 from $59.91.
Target price is $60.38 Current Price is $57.31 Difference: $3.07
If WES meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately 5% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

UBS rates Z1P as Sell (5) -
UBS had always suspected that the "no surcharge" rules of the BNPL sector would eventually be prohibited. The Payments System Board has concluded that it would be the public interest if these rules were removed so that merchants can apply a surcharge to payments if they wish.
The broker considers this an incrementally negative development for Zip, noting the company is more reliant on consumer fees to fund its economics.
UBS retains a Sell rating and $5.40 target.
Target price is $5.40 Current Price is $6.96 Difference: minus $1.56 (current price is over target).
If Z1P meets the UBS target it will return approximately minus 22% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).
