Misys is in good health but the Independent says it has had a very good run from these shares and anyone who got in below 129.5p could happily take profits. However, that would miss out on a banking recovery, which will happen before too long, so hold.UK Mail has a low-cost network, growing market share ? and, aside from its push into packets, other initiatives such as retail logistics and "imail" (a hybrid between e-mail and letters) through which it should be able to increase sales. It also has forecast net cash of £15 million, raising the prospect of a rise in its already-generous dividend payout ? which currently provides a 5.1 per cent yield. At 333½p, up 15p, or 14 times earnings, hold on, says the Times.Shares in Intercede fell when the company, which makes software that dovetails with identity card systems, said its pre-exceptional operating profits for the full year would miss market expectations. Time to sell, then? Maybe not. At 10.1 times FinnCap's full-year forecasts, it is not at all pricey so the Independent is happy to keep buying.Yesterday's first-half figures show IBT continues to deliver increases in net asset value (NAV) ? up 8 per cent to 164p in the six months to March 31. Helped by clarity over US healthcare reforms, and a Japanese hostile bid for OSI, one of its holdings, NAV has since risen further ? to 178p.The case from here is that half a dozen of IBT's big American stocks, such as Celgene and Vertex, will report important trial results in 2010. Meanwhile, its unquoted portfolio is now of a sufficient maturity to start providing an exit. Above all, American biotech stocks, at 14 times earnings, remain inexpensive ? even more so given that, at 139¾p, IBT sits at a 22 per cent discount to NAV, and will benefit from sterling weakness. Buy, says the Times.At 150½p, up 2p, Alternative Networks shares have outperformed the FTSE all-share index by 13 per cent over the past three months. However, at nine times FinnCap's current-year forecasts, and providing a dividend yield of 5.7 per cent, they are not stretched. Buy, says the Times.Please note: Digital Look provides a round-up of news, tips and information that is impacting share prices and the market.
