- Stock Recommendations: A dominant food conglomerate has an OVERWEIGHT rating following solid earnings and cash flow and a recent decision to separate its local and international businesses. Another diversified conglomerate has a NEUTRAL rating amid improvements in its non-listed units. Finally, a holding company earned an UNDERWEIGHT rating as analysts expect slower earnings and the lingering risk of the stock’s removal from the Philippine Stock Exchange in February.
