JEFFERIES ON REAL ESTATE: Indian residential property cycle will enter its 2nd positive year in 2022, and should kick up a gear. 8-year low inventories and cycle-best affordability imply 10% industry vol. and 5-10% price hikes. Office occupancy should also rise as WFH reverses, but rental uptick could be lagged Any rate hike driven scare in property stocks would be a buying opportunity, given strong demand Aggressive developers viz. GPL, Lodha & Prestige are preferred picks.

MORGAN STANLEY ON TECHNOLOGY STOCKS: Expect revenue growth to be strong and potentially surprise on the upside. Margin performance is turning out to be slightly more resilient than our initial expectations. Prefer large caps (Tech M/TCS) over mid caps (MphasiS top pick in midcaps).

JEFFERIES ON THERMAX: Upgrade to buy, TP Rs 2575 Believe management is focused on taking a step forward in 1) Leveraging its brand to deepen existing relations through new products 2) Improving capital allocation 3) Margin improvement 4) Seeking new RE growth avenues.
