CGF – Morgans rates the stock as Hold

However, deteriorating sales momentum in Australia on adviser disruption impacts is likely to be apparent. Morgans maintains a Hold rating and reduces the target to $7.31 from $7.37.

Target price is $7.31.Current Price is $6.66. Difference: $0.65 – (brackets indicate current price is over target). If CGF meets the Morgans target it will return approximately 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges – negative figures indicate an expected loss).
