I have revised downwards my earnings estimate for this year because the first half's performance missed my expectations. Interest rate cuts will help lift the net interest margin as well as the residential loan segment. The year-end target price suggests a small downside from the current market price. Additionally, CATY is offering a moderate dividend yield.
