UK Stocks and Share tips

of the Tips: Share Recommendations 9/2/2007
Buy
Kingston
Communications
Analysts
are full of praise for the well-run Hull-based company,
particularly agreeing with its most recent acquisition –
a UK business ISP called Mistral, whose customers should
compliment those of Kingston's existing ISP, Eclipse, very
well.
Further
acquisitions seem likely and Kingston looks to be generally
sound. Presently trading at a discount to its competitors
in the telecoms sector, they make a good buy.
Buy,
says The Independent.
Sell
Astro
Zeneca
Astro
Zeneca have declared themselves fit in an increasingly rigorous
regulatory environment, but some analysts are unsure. Despite
their standing as the third largest pharmaceutical company
in the world in terms of earnings growth per share, it's
possible there could be trouble ahead.
Both
The Times and The Telegraph say sell.
Carluccio
The
Italian restaurant group has enjoyed a successful year,
expanding its chain of eatery-cum-delis in the south-east
and preparing to open a new outlet in Manchester. However,
it's not clear if this model will translate well throughout
the country, which could limit Carluccio's expansion prospects.
Regardless
of this, Carluccio is currently trading at a substantial
and perhaps unjustified premium to the rest of its sector,
making this a good time to take profits.
Sell,
says The Independent.
