UBS rates A2M as Upgrade to Buy from Neutral (1) -
UBS believes a2 Milk is in a unique position, with a differentiated premium brand that is well regarded yet under-penetrated in the largest and most profitable infant milk formula market globally.

Overnight Price: $0.95
Credit Suisse rates AHY as Outperform (1) -
Credit Suisse assesses an improving earnings profile and low PE should attract investors and the stock could re-rate. Pulp prices in Europe and the US remain very high in an historical context and, as global pulp producer margins remain positive, there is room for prices to decline before supply is reduced.
Meanwhile, retail scan data suggest sales are on track. The broker considers this scenario provides evidence supporting its Outperform rating and $1.10 target.
Target price is $1.10 Current Price is $0.95 Difference: $0.15

Transportation & Logistics

Overnight Price: $2.55
Macquarie rates AIZ as Underperform (5) -
The FY19 outlook has softened, Macquarie notes, however the overall outlook for international capacity is benign and operating statistics in May were solid.

The company will report its FY19 result on August 27. Morgans believes the company has been able to offset headwinds from high input costs and an oversupplied and competitive New Zealand market.

Citi rates WES as Sell (5) -
Citi believes the retail outlook is improving for the first time in four years on the back of tax cuts, rate cuts, lower cost of living and a stabilising housing market. The broker still anticipates some weak earnings reports from the sector ahead of such improvement, and believes downside risk provides buying opportunities.
The broker believes Wesfarmers is overvalued, implying a housing market rebound for Bunnings. Sell retained. Target rises to $33.80 from $29.20.
Target price is $33.80 Current Price is $37.49 Difference: minus $3.69 (current price is over target).
If WES meets the Citi target it will return approximately minus 10% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).
Current consensus price target is $32.75, suggesting downside of -12.6% (ex-dividends)
The company's fiscal year ends in June.

Citi forecasts a full year FY19 dividend of 281.00 cents and EPS of 204.00 cents. How do these forecasts compare to market consensus projections? Current consensus EPS estimate is 175.1, implying annual growth of 65.4%. Current consensus DPS estimate is 261.0, implying a prospective dividend yield of 7.0%.
