Morgan Stanley analyst Vincent Andrews notes that DuPont (DD) can pursue further tax-free strategic options as of September 1, which was the two-year anniversary of the DowDuPont merger, and he also notes that DuPont and Celanese (CE) executives have made public comments about strategic alternatives being a clear priority. Andrews, who thinks "converging forces" may create the environment for a new round of chemical industry consolidation and other dealmaking, believes Celanese, DuPont and DSM (RDSMY) could "be the nexus of any activity" given their size, resources and management commentary. Citing his view that the market will increasingly price in potential M&A, Andrews increased his price target on DuPont shares to $85 from $78, raised his Celanese target to $124 from $102 and upped his DSM target to EUR104 from EUR90. He recommends DuPont as the best way to play the chemical consolidation theme and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares, while keeping Equal Weight ratings on the other two stocks named above.
