0824 GMT - Investors may have already priced in DBS's positive 2025 outlook for net interest margin and wealth management, CGS International analysts say. They raise the target price to S$43.00 from S$37.30 but keep a hold rating on the stock. That is to consider several factors including potentially fewer U.S. Fed rate cuts, stronger wealth-management fees and treasury income, Andrea Choong and Lim Siew Khee say in a note. They add that the bank was fairly optimistic about business growth continuing into 2025, citing reasons like the visibility of its loan-growth pipeline and improving wealth-management investment. Shares are last 1.5% higher at S$42.32. (amanda.lee@wsj.com)
