Mitsubishi Heavy Industries on Smartkarma

Analyst coverage of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) on Smartkarma by Scott Foster indicates positive sentiment towards the company. In the report titled “MHI (7011): Trump 2.0 a Net Positive,” Foster highlights the impact of Trump’s return on Japan’s defense policies, which is favorable for MHI, the top defense contractor in Japan. While the stock price showed initial volatility, there is optimism for long-term growth as orders guidance has been raised slightly, particularly in defense. Foster suggests a hold or buy for the long term, emphasizing that while MHI is not cheap, it is reasonably valued.

In another report, “MHI (7011 JP): Election Unlikely to Affect Defense Budget,” Foster maintains a bullish stance on MHI leading up to Japan’s ruling LDP party presidential election. Despite concerns about a stronger yen, the analysis suggests that the next leader’s impact on defense policies is likely to be minimal, providing stability for MHI. The report indicates that MHI’s valuation is not speculative, but the share price is expected to test recent highs if external factors, such as the yen exchange rate, remain stable.
