Analyst Ratings (Canada)<\/a><\/h2>\n

Today’s overall analyst outlook is moderately bullish but selective, with financials remaining well supported, but some caution around valuations, while technologyand industrials sectors see higher valuation forecasts. Mining and precious metals remain broadly positive, although the sector sis see some stock-specific caution with target reductions, and Consumer stocks remained more mixed. Overall, the latest analyst activity favours banks, technology\/industrial leaders and selected mining names, while valuation and company-specific risks are keeping sentiment from being broadly bullish.<\/p>\n
