** Morgan Stanley cuts German energy company E.On to "equal-weight" from "overweight", EONGn.DE as it sees better risk/reward elsewhere after the shares' recent rally
** E.On has risen 45.3% YTD and although there is upside to the shares, there is less now compared to its peers as its valuation improved, the broker says
** It still sees it as a good portfolio addition, as "macro
concerns may lead E.ON to continue outperforming," it says
** However, potential growth of E.On's business is increasingly known and near-term EPS upgrades are unlikely, MS adds
** Out of 22 analysts covering the company, 13 rate it "strong buy" or "buy" and 9 rate it "hold" - LSEG data
