UK Stocks and Shares and Investment tips
Top
of the Tips: Share Recommendations at 5/10/2007
Ones
to Buy
Homeserve
Homeserve
offer home repair services - from boilers to drains - to
policyholders and contract customers all over the UK, France
and Spain. The company's share price has been hit in recent
months by recent market conditions and a failed takeover
bid for extended warranty provider D&G. That's all over
now and there should be no reason for Homeserve's share
price not to rise again. Buy, says the Mail on Sunday.
TUI
Travel
Formed
by combining Thomson Holidays with First Choice, TUI Travel
has had a stormy time since trading began on September 3rd.
This week's on-target trading statement should help matters,
however, and Deputy CEO Peter Rothwell has also just invested
around £250,000 in his company's shares, suggesting
now could be a good time to buy. The Telegraph.
Corin
Hip
resurfacing may sound exotic, but it's an increasingly popular
alternative to full hip replacements, especially in younger
patients. Corin is one of the few companies to have got
to grips with the technology and have recently signed a
deal to have their products marketed in the US - which should
be a rich source of growth. Buy, suggests the Mail on Sunday.
JKX
Oil & Gas
JKX
Oil & Gas has been one of the main beneficiaries of
Russia's decision to remove subsidies from both Ukrainian
and Russian markets. This company seem to have learnt how
to thrive in the temperamental Russian marketplace and have
also just doubled their dividend to 2p. At only 10.7 times
earnings, The Independent believes JKX is a buy.
Chrysalis
Chrysalis
is perhaps one of the best-known music publishers - especially
for those who remember the hits of the 80s. Its fortunes
have taken a turn for the worse in recent years, but the
recent sell-off of its radio business has left the company
looking newly-focused and with some potential. The possibility
of a takeover in the future could help, too - buy, suggests
The Independent.
Ones
to Avoid
Manganese
Bronze
Despite
being the best performer in the FTSE All-Share Index in
2006, black cab maker Manganese Bronze's share price has
not shown any signs of profit taking. The result is an eye-watering
share price of 57 times 2008 earnings. The reason for this
is the expected success of a lower-cost, Chinese-produced
version of its TX4 cab. At this price, however, any upside
is already priced in. Sell and take profits, says The Times.
Barratt
Developments
House
builder Barratt has just published its full-year results
- which are decent enough. However, the potential downside
of the credit crunch and housing market downturn mean that
its fortunes might not be so rosy this year. Sell, says
The Times.
