It has been another busy week for many of Australia’s top brokers. This has led to the release of a number of broker notes.
Three broker buy ratings that you might want to know more about are summarised below. Here’s why brokers think these ASX shares are in the buy zone right now:
CSL Ltd (ASX: CSL)
According to a note out of Morgan Stanley, its analysts have retained their overweight rating and $256.00 price target on this biotechnology company’s shares. The broker remains very positive on CSL’s outlook due to the long term demand for immunoglobulins and plasma yield improvements from the Horizon program. It expects the latter to be supportive of a margin recovery in the key CSL Behring business. In light of this and recent share price weakness, the broker sees a favourable risk/reward profit here for investors. The CSL share price is trading at $183.21 on Friday afternoon.
NextDC Ltd (ASX: NXT)
A note out of Citi reveals that its analysts have retained their buy rating and $18.35 price target on this data centre operator’s shares. This follows news that the company has signed an agreement with ChatGPT’s owner, OpenAI. Citi notes that OpenAI is set to become an anchor tenant for the 650MW S7 data centre at Eastern Creek in Sydney. While revenue from this centre is still a couple of years away, the broker was pleased with the news and the diversification that it brings to its customer base. The NextDC share price is fetching $13.91 at the time of writing.
WiseTech Global Ltd (ASX: WTC)
Analysts at Macquarie have upgraded this logistics solutions technology company’s shares to an outperform rating with a $108.50 price target. According to the note, the broker is feeling more confident about WiseTech Global’s business model transition. And while it sees limited risk with its half year result, it remains cautious on its FY 2026 result and FY 2027 guidance. Nevertheless, the broker is bullish on the long term and believes that the company can and will fundamentally reshape the logistics industry. It also notes that execution risks are commensurate with the size and deliverability of a massive market opportunity, and that its current share price doesn’t reflect this delivery. The WiseTech Global share price is trading at $73.28 this afternoon.
