Banks tick all the boxes in the market’s current configuration: search for discounted sectors, cyclical momentum, sectors driven by long-term interest rates that remain high and shareholder returns through very high dividend yields. Technical analysis reveals a strong conviction since early March, and this should continue. We prefer banks in southern Europe, where the macro outlook is brighter. Alongside CaixaBank, which we are maintaining in our list of European Large Cap stocks, we ...
Les banques cochent toutes les cases de la configuration de marché actuelle : recherche de secteurs décotés, momentum cyclique, secteurs portés par des taux longs qui restent hauts, retour à l’actionnaire via un très haut dividend yield. L’analyse technique montre une forte conviction depuis début mars, qui devrait se poursuivre. Nous favorisons les banques du sud de l’Europe, à la macro plus avenante. Aux côtés de CaixaBank, que nous conservons dans notre liste de valeurs Large Caps ...

2024 is set to be less impressive than 2023 (comparison bases, persistent inflation and tougher price hikes). We continue to play the green Capex theme and remain cautious on the construction segment. After the end-of-year rally, we see more limited re-rating potential. Based on our 2024 guidance scenarios, our Top Picks are Atlas Copco, Schneider Electric and Siemens (green Capex exposure, potential for earning upgrades over the course of the year). We have downgraded Rexel to N...
L’année 2024 sera moins flamboyante que 2023 (base de comparaison, inflation persistante et hausses de prix plus difficiles). Nous continuons de privilégier la thématique ‘Green Capex’ et restons prudents sur le segment de la construction. Après le rallye boursier de fin d’année, le potentiel de rerating nous semble plus limité. Sur la base de nos scénarios de guidances 2024, nos top picks sont Atlas Copco, Schneider Electric et Siemens (exposition Green Capex, potentiel de relèv...
>After a 23% fall in the share price over 2 years, the multiples are becoming rational - The 23% fall in the share price over two years has brought Stadler’s multiples more into line with its status as a stock exposed to the rail sector. The share is now trading at an EV/EBIT 12m multiple of 12.7x, a discount of 23% to its historical average. Despite this de-rating, the stock nonetheless remains the most expensive in the rail sector (average EV/EBIT 12m multiple of 9...
>Après une baisse de cours de 23% sur 2 ans, les multiples deviennent rationnels - La baisse du cours de 23% sur 2 ans permet à Stadler de se traiter sur des multiples plus en ligne avec son statut de valeur exposée au secteur ferroviaire. Le titre se traite désormais sur un multiple VE/EBIT 12m de 12.7x, soit une décote de 23% par rapport à sa moyenne historique.

Since its H1 2023 results (25 July), Basic-Fit’s share price dropped by 21%. However, Basic-Fit is financially healthy, in our view – its long-term growth prospects remain sound, and we think the market overreacted on some topics. We reiterate our Outperform recommendation, with a marginally lowered € 45 TP (previously € 47.50). - ...

The economic outlook for the eurozone deteriorated over the summer. The gloom is no longer exclusively confined to Germany and the manufacturing sector but now also extends to other countries and sectors. The bank lending tap has been closed for more than six months, portending a sharp correction in investment spending. To date, the labour market has held up well but some cracks are now emerging. Disinflation is not yet advanced enough to restore purchasing power (we will have to wait...
Les perspectives économiques de la zone euro se sont dégradées cet été. La morosité n’est plus seulement confinée à l’Allemagne et au secteur manufacturier, elle s’étend aux autres pays et secteurs. Le robinet du crédit bancaire est fermé depuis plus de six mois, présageant une correction marquée des dépenses d’investissement. A ce jour, le marché du travail résiste mais quelques craquements se font jour. La désinflation n'est pas encore assez avancée pour redonner du pouvoir d’achat ...
