Asian firms continued to receive earnings upgrades in July, highlighting sustained hopes of a recovery and optimism that equity prices will be bolstered in the second half of this year.

Goldman Sachs, which expects 35per cent EPS growth for MSCI Asia Pacific ex-Japan this year, said continued robust sales growth and margin recovery will be the drivers of stronger earnings. Australian companies led the region's upgrades in July as analysts raised their forward 12-month profit estimates 11.5per cent.
