** Berenberg sees an opportunity in the small- and mid-cap
segments which have not re-rated as much as large caps in 2019
** Diving into 2020, the broker expects mid-cap indices to
regain some lost ground as risk appetite improves
** Says its top picks for the "roaring '20s" includes Dutch
marine engineer Boskalis BOSN.AS , Italy's loan recovery
specialist doValue DOVA.MI and two French companies - oil
storage and distribution company Rubis RUBF.PA and IT
specialist Solutions 30 ALS30.PA
** Names ski resort and theme park operator Compagnie des
Alpes CDAF.PA , wine-barrel producer TFF TFF.PA , and
animation company Xilam XIL.PA "hidden gems" with "excellent"
long-term outlook and exciting short-term momentum
** The broker ups rating on Sipef SIFB.BR , a Belgian
agribusiness group, to "buy" saying its long-term prospects are
solid as demand for sustainable palm oil increases
** In the same note, Berenberg revises downwards its ratings
on French boiler company Boostheat BOOST.PA , laundry services
provider Elis ELIS.PA and logistics specialist ID Logistics
IDLA.PA and now has a "hold" recommendation on the shares
