Breville Group Ltd (ASX: BRG)

According to a note out of Morgan Stanley, its analysts have retained their overweight rating and $25.00 price target on this appliance manufacturer's shares. This follows the release of an update from rival DeLonghi, which appears to show that demand is improving, particularly in the at-home coffee market. Morgan Stanley feels this update is supportive of its positive view on Breville. The Breville share price is trading at $22.54 today.

Life360 Inc (ASX: 360)

A note out of Goldman Sachs reveals that its analysts have retained their buy rating on this location technology company's shares with an improved price target of $9.20. Its analysts believe that app data is pointing to Life360 delivering a strong update next month. Based on this and its significant earnings upside over the medium term, the broker believes there is re-rating potential for the company's shares as it shifts into the profitable tech basket. The Life360 share price is fetching $7.71 today.

Pointsbet Holdings Ltd (ASX: PBH)

Analysts at Bell Potter have retained their speculative buy rating on this sports betting company's shares with a trimmed price target of $2.20. This follows the release of a fourth-quarter update that was at least in line but in some cases better than the broker's expectations. Overall, Bell Potter appears positive on the company's progress and highlights that a sizeable distribution will be made to eligible shareholders in September. The Pointsbet share price is trading at $1.67 today.
