China Merchants Bank Shares Likely to Outperform Near Term -- Market Talk

Dow Jones10-03

1019 GMT - China Merchants Bank's shares are likely to outperform near term, DBS Group Research analyst Manyi Lu writes in a note. The lender's stock tends to be more sensitive to China's economic progress than that of its peers, and given that Beijing's recently announced stimulus package has exceeded market expectations, Lu thinks the stock could make sharp gains. DBS raises FY 2024-2025 fee income estimates for China Merchants Bank to reflect expected growth in the A-shares market, and lowers cost-of-equity estimates to reflect a lower interest-rate environment. DBS retains a buy rating on the bank, raising its H-share target to HK$52.20 from HK$37.50, and its A-share target to CNY50.90 from CNY36.60. Shares closed at HK$45.35 and CNY37.61 respectively.
