On Wednesday, Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) analysts initiated coverage on TD Synnex stock (NYSE: SNX) with an Overweight rating, setting a price target of $145. Currently trading at $126.22, the stock sits between its 52-week range of $92.23 to $145.10. This marks the start of Morgan Stanley’s coverage of the company, highlighting its potential in the IT hardware sector. According to InvestingPro data, the stock appears undervalued based on its Fair Value analysis.

The analysts view TD Synnex as a long-term beneficiary within the IT hardware landscape.

Morgan Stanley also emphasized TD Synnex’s scale benefits in developed markets and its growing presence in emerging markets.
