GEA (DE0006602006) is drawing fresh analyst attention on Xetra after Morgan Stanley lifted the rating to Equal-weight and raised the price target to 60 euros, according to Investing.com. The move puts the German industrial equipment group back in the focus of machinery investors in Frankfurt.
Morgan Stanley resets the view
Morgan Stanley moved GEA from Underweight to Equal-weight and lifted the target from 58 euros to 60 euros, Investing.com reported on Tuesday. The note also said the valuation drop had already reflected much of the medium-term growth concern. Investing.com report on the Morgan Stanley note
