The Domain share price is up 3% to $5.04. This morning analysts at UBS upgraded this property listings company's shares to a buy rating with an improved price target of $5.70. This follows the release of a full year result that was ahead of expectations. UBS is positive on its medium term outlook.
Domino's Pizza Enterprises Ltd (ASX: DMP)
The Domino's share price has stormed 6.5% higher to $135.26. Investors have been fighting to get hold of the pizza chain operator's shares after it delivered stellar sales and profit growth in FY 2021.
