0139 GMT - Myer's bull at Canaccord Genuity says the department-store operator's foundations look stronger now that it has its costs under control. Analyst Allan Franklin relays to investors the company's observation that it's been working for some time in a tough consumer environment, with management seemingly confident in the near-term trajectory. He concedes in a note that December and January trading was softer than some had expected, and lowers his forecasts on the expectation of increased promotional activity. However, he keeps a buy rating on the stock. Target price falls 7.6% to A$0.73. Shares are up 5.2% at A$0.305. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
