REA's Price Rises Reduce Downside Risks -- Market Talk

Dow Jones03-20 07:49

2349 GMT - REA Group's higher-than-forecast price increases are seen by its bull at Citi as reducing downside risk from any listings softness from rate hikes and broader macroeconomic weakness. Analyst Siraj Ahmed tells clients in a note that the Australian real-estate advertiser's proposed 8%-10% price rises compare with his prior expectation of a 7% increase. The move should also ease investor concerns that the News Corp-controlled company's pricing power could be hit by a resurgence at CoStar-owned rival Domain. Citi has a buy rating and A$199.00 target price on the stock, which is up 0.8% at A$159.88. News Corp is the parent company of Dow Jones & Co., publisher of The Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones Newswires. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
