Erg shares, sell after Morgan Stanley's downgrade?
Erg shares, to sell after Morgan Stanley's downgrade to "underweight"? The Italian utility is under the spotlight of analysts along with other shares in the sector at European level.
In a context in which the bond market is still showing rising yields, Erg and the other securities in the sector are suffering.
Morgan Stanley believes the stock is now fully valued and has no room for further growth.
The target price set by the bank is 27.3 euros (from 26.8 euros), slightly above the current valuation (26.48 euros).
The analysts' negative opinion triggered a wave of sales on the stock, which yesterday recorded the worst performance in the Ftse Mib basket.
The perspective offered by Intesa Sanpaolo is different, as it recently reiterated its positive view on Erg, confirming its "buy" rating.
Despite the cut in the target price from 33.5 to 32.5 euros, the Italian bank's analysts still see a potential appreciation of 22% compared to current levels.
Intesa Sanpaolo underlines Erg's financial solidity and limited exposure to market fluctuations in production.
This positive outlook is supported by solid fundamentals, good earnings visibility and a balanced risk/return profile.

Drops below 25.76 euros, yesterday's low, would pave the way for sellers towards supports at 25.20 and 24 euros.
