Telecom stocks: JPMorgan prefers Bharti and Hexacom, stays Underweight on Vodafone Idea
JPMorgan prefers Bharti Airtel and Bharti Hexacom, citing attractive valuations and strong competitive positions. The firm maintains an Underweight rating on Vodafone Idea, noting that its rising capital expenditure has not yet translated into increased subscriber or revenue share. This suggests current pricing already reflects an optimistic view of its turnaround.
