India ‘Overweight’, China ‘Equal Weight’: Morgan Stanley
Morgan Stanley upgrades India shares to "overweight" and downgrades China to "equal weight" amid divergent economic outlooks and challenges in the regions. Taiwan also faces a downgrade due to stretched tech valuations.
Morgan Stanley shifts focus: India gains, China restrained; Taiwan also downgraded amid tech surge
Morgan Stanley has downgraded its rating on Chinese stocks to ‘equal weight’ as the recent rally fueled by government stimulus promises an opportunity for investors to take profits. In contrast, the firm believes that India’s macro indicators remain robust, and its economy is on track to achieve the forecasted 6.2% GDP growth. India’s ability to leverage multipolar world dynamics is seen as a significant advantage, prompting Morgan Stanley to elevate India’s position in their process.
