0915 GMT - Budweiser brewer AB InBev is set for a slow start to the year but should see a zipper second half, analysts at J.P.Morgan write.

And further boons lie ahead, the investment bank says, pointing to the soccer world championship inked in for the summer, as well as tailwinds from volume growth and currency effects. "We retain our positive stance on the beer sector," JPM says. (joshua.kirby@wsj.com; @joshualeokirby)
