Cimic Meets 2018 Earnings Guidance High-End. No Change in View or AUD 34.50 FVE.

We make no change to our AUD 34.50 per share fair value estimate for no-moat Cimic. The company reported an 11% increase in underlying 2018 NPAT to AUD 781 million, marginally ahead of our AUD 761 million forecast, and at the top end of guidance.

2020 Asset Allocation and ASX Outlook

We expect the Australian equity market to deliver low-mid single digit returns next year. Our Dynamic Asset Allocation preference is a mild overweight to Growth assets, given the relative attractiveness of equities to both bonds and credit. In Fixed Income we prefer Global markets over Australia even though the RBA has probably more work to do. In the ASX, the Risk: Reward skew is tilted more positive for Resources than Banks, particularly in H1 as the global economy shows signs of recovery. Maintaining and slowly building a defensive portfolio will be important for performance next yea...

Astra Posts Solid 2Q, Driven by Strong Cancer Drug Sales and Moving Away From One-Time Divestments
