23:27 GMT [Dow Jones]--GrainCorp loses its bull at Macquarie on the grain handler's latest earnings downgrade. Cutting their recommendation to neutral from outperform, an analyst at the investment bank writes in a note that they see the low-margin environment in which the Australian company is operating persisting for at least the next 12 months. With the U.S. wheat market expected to remain in surplus, the analyst can't see any catalyst for a meaningful near-term lift in grain prices that would improve GrainCorp's export margins. Macquarie cuts its fiscal 2026 EPS forecast by 65%, driving a 20% cut in target price to A$6.60. Shares are down 2.4% at A$6.04. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
