2244 GMT [Dow Jones]--Australia's Lovisa gets a new bull at Bell Potter despite the fashion jewelry retailer's sales falling short of expectations. Analyst Chami Ratnapala tells clients in a note that, while comparable sales growth has recently softened, she expects a modest level of recovery through the remainder of the December half. She points to the fact that Black Friday occurs a day earlier this year, possibly aiding on-year growth. She lowers her target price by 3.2% to A$30.00, but upgrades her recommendation to buy from hold following what she calls a recent share-price correction. The stock is at A$27.85 ahead of the open.
