00014 Should I Buy

The analyst rating from Citi Research is based on the strong performance of Hong Kong's retail sales, particularly in the luxury sector, which saw a 9.5% year-over-year increase. This growth is attributed to factors such as increased tourism and visitor retail consumption, influenced by tense Sino-Japanese relations and a relatively weak Hong Kong dollar. The report suggests that the positive performance in luxury retail will likely drive the share prices of WHARF REIC and HYSAN DEV positively, leading to a recommendation for investors to increase their stake in WHARF REIC with a "Buy" rating and a target price of $30.3. Conversely, investors are advised to reduce their shareholdings in LINK REIT, which has a "Neutral" rating and a target price of $36.8.
