The ING Benelux equity research team has performed a Covid-19 scenario analysis in order to provide a reference point for investors and to test if stocks: (a) have been relatively oversold in comparison to their earnings risk; (b) still provide downside risk; and/or have balance issues in a Covid-19 scenario; and (c) could bounce sharply if a vaccine is found; or (d) benefit relatively from the crisis. Our analysis results in lists of stocks that we consider: (1) low earnings risk, with attracti...

Proving its worth as the ‘risk-off' stock of the moment in Europe and raising its guidance while leaving more in the tank has driven Vonovia shares substantially higher post 1Q19. The biggest contributor for the VNA performance is the 1H19 asset valuation guidance (to be higher than 1H18 or >€1.4bn) and we increase our estimate from ?900m to €1.5bn (+€1.2/share in NAV). Management indicates its increased guidance is still very prudent as it is still ‘learning about the new business lin...

We investigate a presumed October 2018 ‘style' rotation and try to find factors driving performance over the last year, potentially giving direction for 2019. Overlaying segment performance (eg, German resi vs offices vs retail) and style factors ‘quality' (initial yield), ‘growth' (2016-2019F EPS CAGR), ‘value' (low PER), we find that value consistently underperformed from February to August, after which quality underperformed and high yielding assets outperformed from July. Retail rema...
The change in the Mietspiegel lookback period from 4 to 6 years was the one element of the coalition housing proposal we did not expect to move forward this quickly. In our view, the final decision to go ahead with it reflects the pace and extent to which political pressure has increased over the course of the year. Meanwhile, the change reinforces our view that capex will become an increasingly important source of differentiation over time. We see increased investment as a natural strategic rea...
• We think the sector's status as a consensus overweight continues to be well deserved and short-term equity price dislocations should be bought. • In our view, the key themes for the next few years will be capital allocation, modernisation economics, and the impact of cost inflation. • We initiate with a BUY rating on Deutsche Wohnen and LEG Immobilien. • We initiate with a HOLD rating on ADO Properties and Vonovia.
