0322 GMT - Morgan Stanley wonders about the durability of DDR4-driven earnings growth in Sims's SLS electronics recycling division. The bank's China Semiconductors team recently turned more constructive on DDR4 memory-chip prices because of tighter supply conditions and more resilient legacy memory demand, it says. "While this supports near-term earnings upside for SLS, we still view current earnings as pricing-sensitive and therefore unlikely to represent a clean through-cycle earnings base," MS says. Still, it upgrades Sims to equal weight from underweight and raises its share-price target to A$24.00 from A$15.50. It cites near-term support for SLS earnings from DDR4 prices, among other factors. Shares are up 0.9% at A$27.07. (rhiannon.hoyle@wsj.com; @RhiannonHoyle)
