Tuesday tips round-up: HSBC, Senior, Bloomsbury...

Tue, 01st Mar 2011 06:43

HSBC looks like a good hold with a high dividend yield of 3.9% and a forecast price earnings multiple for 2011 of 11.2.It is true that Asia offers fantastic earnings opportunities, but there are cheaper ways to gain that exposure and with European recovery priced so cheaply at the moment - Lloyds barely trades at book value - now is not the time to be buying into what could well be the next asset price bubble says the Telegraph.Mark Rollins, the chief executive of Senior, has spent much of the past couple of years standing up at City presentations and promising jam tomorrow from the much-delayed Boeing 787 Dreamliner programme. Both Boeing and Airbus have indicated their intention to ramp up their programmes to build commercial craft in coming years. The shares now sell on about 12 times this year's earnings and remain a good long-term bet says the Times.Amazon recently reported that sales of e-books were outselling paperbacks. Now Bloomsbury Publishing reports that sales of individual e-books are running at just under 10 per cent of total print sales. Bloomsbury was reporting figures at the top end of City expectations, but precise comparisons are made more difficult by a proposed change in the financial year-end to the end of February and a reorganisation of the group. The shares, up 3¾p to 119¾p, are selling on almost 13 times' earnings for the year just completed. High enough for now says the Times.Bunzl's business model could not be simpler. It distributes a huge range of workaday products such as cleaning materials, paper napkins, plastic bags, face masks and tea bags to workplaces in 23 countries. Last year Bunzl spent £126m on a series of small deals, all funded out of strong cashflow. There are still purchase opportunities in continental Europe, where Bunzl is still only the same size as in Britain and Ireland despite the much larger market. Hold and buy on weakness says the Times.Bunzl's operating profits also rose by single-digit figures in North America and continental Europe, but the star performer was its rest of the world division, which boasted a 19% rise in profits to £23.8m. The shares trade on a forward earnings multiple of 12.5, which is a discount to a number of its rivals. With more corporate action on the agenda, it looks set for steady growth. Buy says the Independent.When looking at Hays, investors would do well to put aside worries about the domestic jobs market. As the recruiter made very clear right at the start of its half-yearly results statement last night, more than 60% of net fees spring from beyond these shores, up from 54% in 2009. Hays boasts an attractive yield of 4.6% and is rated lower than rivals. Buy says the Independent.The squeeze on construction markets in the developed world made 2010 among the toughest in Keller's history. Wait until the markets show firmer signs of recovery. Hold says the Independent.Please note: Digital Look provides a round-up of news, tips and information that is impacting share prices and the market.
