UK Stocks and Shares and Investment tips
Top
of the Tips: Share Recommendations at 31 8 2007
Ones
To Buy
National
Grid
National
Grid are now within grasping distance of a very large US
acquisition, that having now met regulatory approval, should
ensure a healthy increase in profits for the UK power company.
A dividend increase is also possible this year - buy, says
The Independent.
Severfield
Rowen
Structural
steel group Severfield Rowen are enjoying a record order
book at present and have just made a powerful acquisition
that should strengthen their market position. Despite healthy
rises in recent years, the shares still have further to
go. Buy, says The Telegraph.
Neteller
The
online payment processor was formerly a favourite with
rs in the US - so was hit hard when the US ban on
internet gambling came in. Having shed more than half its
1,000 workforce, Neteller is now showing signs of regrouping
and playing a successful role in its remaining markets -
Europe and Asia. Buy, suggests The Independent.
Tesco
The
supermarket giant's shares have been hit hard by the recent
turbulence in the stock market - but with group earnings
forecast to grow by 13% this year, the shares' present depressed
price may present a good opportunity. Buy now, says The
Times.
ClinPhone
Nottingham-based
ClinPhone provides phone and IT systems to help drug companies
run drug trials. It has lost nearly three-quarters of its
value since the beginning of this year - but CEO Steve Kent
is now trying to reassure investors that everything is under
control again. If true, now could be a good time to buy,
suggests The Independent.
Ones
to Avoid
Photo-Me
International
Shares
in the photo booth operator are currently stuck at a four-year
low. With shareholder activists demanding a disposal of
the company's vending machine division and an internal review
of the situation that seems to be dragging on, there are
not many promising signs here. Avoid, says The Times.
Rentokil
While
Rentokil CEO Doug Flynn's efforts to sort out the company
seem to be paying off, there are still a few uncertainties
and most of the recovery already seems to be priced into
the company's shares. With that in mind, steer clear for
a bit longer, says The Times.
