Rates start reversing, but European small/mid-caps' valuations remain unchanged - Jefferies
** Jefferies sees investment opportunities among European small- and mid-cap stocks, citing valuations at record lows vs large caps and a broad-based recovery that has not yet materialised, while Eurozone rates have started to reverse
** It says volatility presents a good opportunity to buy names exposed to attractive long-term structural growth markets at a discount, highlighting Arcadis ARDS.AS, Do&Co DOCO.VI and Sixt SIXG.DE
** It cites Basler BSLG.DE, Jenoptik JENGn.DE, Siltronic WAFGn.DE, Fugro FUGR.AS and TKH Group TWKNc.AS as "oversold cyclicals"
** Among rate cut beneficiaries, which should see earnings tailwinds from falling rates, it puts Afry AFRY.ST, Flatexdegiro FTKn.DE and Nordex NDXG.DE
** Jefferies favours Belimo BEAN.S and Munters MTRS.ST as companies with unique opportunities from the rise of AI and its boost to global data centre market over the next decade
