0303 GMT - China's Laopu Gold aims to have about 50 stores in domestic markets in the long term, Nomura analysts write in a note, citing a conference call with the jewelry company's management team. Laopu has more than 30 stores in mainland China with a relatively higher density in Beijing, but the company only aims to open about five stores in Shanghai and doesn't have further expansion plans for the business hub. For the overseas market, Laopu plans to open a store in Japan next year, they add. The company's product innovation has been a key focus and future designs will remain rooted in Chinese aesthetics with heritage gold craftsmanship, they say. Nomura maintains its buy rating for the stock with a target price of HK$1,023.00. Shares last at HK$993.50. (jiahui.huang@wsj.com; @ivy_jiahuihuang)
