Morgan Stanley has upgraded its stock rating on China Mobile (0941.HK), the world's top wireless carrier, to overweight from equal-weight on a high earnings outlook.

The investment bank also raise its price target for China Mobile to HK$85.00 from HK$70.00.

China Mobile's shares were trading down 1.9 percent at HK$74.05 on Thursday morning.
