0052 GMT - Shares in ARB Corp. are priced for earnings downgrades that the Australian auto-accessory manufacturer's new bull doesn't think are coming. Barrenjoey initiates coverage of the stock with an overweight rating, telling clients in a note that ARB is a high-quality business in an attractive category. The investment bank's analysts write that it has pricing power and leverage to Australia's new car cycle, which they think is poised to rebound. Its opportunity in the U.S. is large but looks likely to take time, they add. With tariff worries recently weighing on the stock, they see risk-reward skewed to the upside. Barrenjoey places a A$37.00 target price on the stock, which is down 2.4% at A$31.66. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
