0334 GMT - The outlook for shares of metals recycler Sims is under pressure from soft scrap prices, according to Morgan Stanley analysts Joseph Michael and Julianna Sick. In a note, the analysts say Sims' valuation appears elevated given near-term earnings are being eroded by weak ferrous margins. MS's target on the stock drops to A$12.50/share from A$13.00. The bank reiterates an underweight rating. Longer term, MS reckons Sims will enjoy structural tail winds from greater use of electric arc furnaces and its focus on margins over volume, the analysts say. Sims is down 2.4% at A$13.61.
