However, given the pace of memory price hike, the broker believed that the Company's expectations remain too conservative and saw downside risks, as January's OEM shipments were below expectations, and Morgan Stanley observed that the outlook for the PC supply chain has also turned cautious.

However, Morgan Stanley considered LENOVO GROUP to be the best-positioned enterprise among the Greater China OEMs it covers, with rating kept at Equalweight and a target price of $9.8.
