Three top ASX shares that leading brokers have named as buys this week are listed below. Here's why they are bullish on them:

Aristocrat Leisure Limited (ASX: ALL)

According to a note out of Morgan Stanley, its analysts have retained their overweight rating and $43.00 price target on this gaming technology company's shares. This follows news that Aristocrat's real money gaming (RMG) business has signed a deal with BetMGM for digital slot content.

Healthco Healthcare and Wellness REIT (ASX: HCW)

A note out of Morgans reveals that its analysts have retained their add rating on this property company's shares with an improved price target of $2.06.

Morgans appears positive on the future, highlighting its active development pipeline (Springfield and Proxima) and the uncommitted developments which include strategic partners.

Objective Corporation Limited (ASX: OCL)

Analysts at Goldman Sachs have retained their buy rating but trimmed their price target on this software company's shares to $14.80.

The Objective Corp share price is trading at $12.48 this afternoon.
