In addition, it highlights that the company now has a higher return hurdle on new store openings to reflect a higher cost of capital. The Accent share price is trading at $2.48 today.

Alcidion Group Ltd (ASX: ALC)

A note out of Bell Potter reveals that its analysts have resume coverage on this commercial stage healthcare IT company's shares with a speculative buy rating and 20 cents price target.

The Alcidion share price is fetching 11.5 cents on Tuesday.

Eagers Automotive Ltd (ASX: APE)

Analysts at Morgans have retained their add rating and $15.85 price target on this auto seller's shares. The broker highlights that electric vehicles (EV) sales have now hit 7.4% of the market.
