TotalEnergies remains one of our Top Picks in the sector. The new 2024-2028 plan presented at end-September is ambitious. It is based on selective growth in upstream production (+2/3% per year) and significant development in renewables. Its lead in this domain is undeniable, and has enabled it to raise its profitability target for iPower, which will be a source of re-rating over time. This plan should facilitate cash returns to shareholders of >40% of CFFO, while the share's valuation...

>Good 2023 results, net new growth of 4.6% ahead of the historical trend - Before trading yesterday, Compass reported good 2023 results, in line with expectations. We particularly note an excellent level of net new business growth, at +4.6%, ahead of the historical level of 2-3%, underpinned by a still very high retention rate (96.5%) and a good level of new signatures. But these numbers did not sit well with the market (off -2% at the close), probably because the new...

The market wants to see the glass as half full, with lower inflation ending the central bank tightening cycle and leading to an easing of yields. This complacency could last until the next meetings of the Fed (13 December) and the ECB (14 December). For those wishing to play this short-term sequence, we recommend continuing to overweight US equities, overweighting Growth vs Value, as well as Quality, remaining Market Weight on Cyclicals and Defensives, and adjusting the sector allocat...
Saint-Gobain a fait le choix de se transformer pour ne pas mourir. Pour autant, le marché reste sceptique quant aux changements très substantiels survenus depuis l’ère Bazin. Le meilleur reste encore à venir. Rien de mieux qu’une année 2024 encore difficile pour convaincre de la solidité du nouveau modèle : les économies de coûts que nous estimons à 400 M€e devraient permettre de compenser une baisse de volume de ~3%. Nous restons convaincus que le rerating titre n’est qu’une question...
