BHP Group Ltd (ASX: BHP)

According to a note out of Goldman Sachs, its analysts have retained their buy rating on this mining giant's shares with a lowered price target of $49.40. This follows the release of a slightly weaker than expected second quarter update. While not overly impressed with the quarter, the broker has seen enough to remain positive. It also continues to forecast an attractive 5% dividend yield in FY 2024. The BHP share price is trading at $46.04 on Friday.

Suncorp Group Ltd (ASX: SUN)

A note out of Citi reveals that its analysts have retained their buy rating on this insurance giant's shares with an improved price target of $15.55. Citi is feeling confident ahead of the release of Suncorp's results next month. It expects strong premium increases to be a big boost to its profits. Citi also suspects that Suncorp will have ended the period with some catastrophe allowance to spare. The Suncorp share price is fetching $14.15 this morning.

Treasury Wine Estates Ltd (ASX: TWE)

Analysts at Morgan Stanley have retained their overweight rating on this wine giant's shares with a trimmed price target of $13.75. The broker has updated its financial model to reflect the acquisition of the DAOU luxury wine brand. While the broker has increased its earnings estimates, its valuation takes a small hit due to integration risks. The Treasury Wine share price is trading at $10.47 today.
