Top
of the Tips: Share Recommendations at 2/2/11
Ones
to Buy
Entertainment
One
Entertainment One owns the rights to children's TV favourite
Peppa Pig. It's just secured a deal to have the program
shown on the Nick Jr channel in the US – a "huge"
deal for them, according to fund manager Mark Slater, writing
in the Mail. Buy.
Hutchison
China Meditech
Another of Slater's tips for the Mail was this Chinese pharmaceuticals
company, whose stock is up 42% on a year ago and which is
moving into organic baby foods and formula milk, two areas
in which he expects big growth in the Chinese market. Buy.
Asos
Another fund manager tip in the Mail, Asos (As Seen On Screen)
was selected by fund manager Harry Nimmo as a growth story
for 2011. It is now benefiting from having 45% of its sales
outside the UK. Buy.
Tullet
Prebon
Broker
Tullet Prebon is expanding and now has a desk in the London
Metal Exchange. The current dividend yield is 3.4% with
the potential for this to increase when a current legal
dispute is settled. Buy, says Questor in the Daily Telegraph.
Bunzl
Bunzl sources and delivers business consumables –
the vast range of things like toilet paper, paper cups and
plastic bags that are little thought of but vitally important.
It is continuing to expand via acquisition and forecasts
a small increase in revenues this year. Questor in the Daily
Telegraph rates Bunzl as a buy.
Ones to Avoid
Marston's
Pub group Marston's is experiencing problems with the tenanted
side of its business, with profits down on the year. Despite
the success of the company's managed business, Investors
Chronicle rated Marston's as a sell in December.
