7 ASX 200 shares getting the thumbs up from brokers
Megaport share price to rise 50%, says Macquarie
ASX 200 technology share Megaport Ltd (ASX: MP1) received one of the most bullish 12-month price target updates today.
The Megaport share price closed the session at $12, down 1.24%.
Macquarie has raised its rating to outperform with an $18 share price target.
This implies a potential 50% upside on today's closing share price.
But Morgans has gone the opposite way.
It has cut its rating to hold with a vastly lower share price target of $13 for Megaport.
Megaport released its full-year FY23 results yesterday.
The ASX 200 share is up 95% in the year to date.
Citi raises Hub24 price target 18%
ASX 200 financial share Hub24 Ltd (ASX: HUB) has more room for growth, according to Citi.
The Hub24 share price closed at $30.99, down 0.67%.
Citi has increased its rating to buy with an 18% higher share price target of $35.60.
So, we're talking a potential upside of 15% over the next 12 months (if Citi is right!)
However, not all brokers are with Citi on this one.
Morgans and Jefferies cut their ratings to hold, and Macquarie cut Hub24 shares to neutral. Their price targets are $32.80, $31.08, and $33.60, respectively.
This follows Hub24 releasing its full-year FY23 results yesterday.
The ASX 200 share is up 15% in the year to date.
Alumina shares have 13% upside potential
Citi has raised its rating to neutral on ASX 200 mining share Alumina Limited (ASX: AWC).
The Alumina share price closed at $1.15 today, down 4.96%.
Although the broker is neutral on the stock, its 12-month share price target of $1.30 shows there's room for growth.
This follows Alumina releasing its full-year FY23 results yesterday.
The Alumina share price is down 23% in 2023 so far.
An ingenious investment idea?
Our next broker upgrade goes to Ingenia Communities Group (ASX: INA).
The Ingenia share price finished at $4.03, down 4.5% on Wednesday.
JP Morgan has upped its rating to neutral with a $4.30 share price target.
This implies a potential 7% upside on today's closing share price.

15% upside on Nanosonics, says Bell Potter

The Nanosonics share price closed the session today at $4.10, down 8.89%.
The broker has increased its rating to hold, and raised its share price target by 17% to $4.85.
This implies a potential 15% upside on today's closing share price.

Monadelphous shares to outperform, says Macquarie

The Monadelphous share price closed today at $14.37, up 6.6%.
The engineering services provider released its full-year FY23 numbers yesterday.
The ASX 200 share is up 11% in the year to date.
Westfield owner not looking so hot
ASX 200 property share Scentre Group (ASX: SCG) has also received a broker re-rating.
But it's not at all inspiring.
The Scentre share price closed the session today at $2.70, down 1.46%.
CLSA has raised its rating to reduce with a $2.70 share price target.
So, the broker foresees no share price growth from here over the next 12 months.
