Tom Bulford Says HCC Is a Penny Stock Bargain Right Now
The recruitment industry is getting whacked right along with most other sectors right now. But Penny Sleuth’s Tom Bulford sees strong potential for Hexagon Human Capital (LON:HHC). The company is well protected from the purge in the financial sector and has a solid cash flow. Tom says this is one to watch for the future…
Prison Business Means Eleco Has Recession-Proof Profit Stream
Building suppliers aren’t popular with investors. Today, US housing market data revealed existing home prices fell by a record 9.5% in August. In Britain property sales are at their lowest for 50 years. Nevertheless, Tom Bulford says Eleco (LON:ELCO) is a great contrarian play. The company has diverse profit stream from prison- and school-building programs, which should protect it from a recession. With a P/E of over six and a yield of over 4%, Tom says this is a stock to watch.
Why BPC Could Strike (Black) Gold With Bahamas Project
Penny Sleuth’s Tom Bulford says oil explorer BPC Limited (LON:BPC) could be onto big things in the Bahamas. The company has five prospecting licenses off the coast of the Caribbean island, where research suggests it could find major oil deposits. Tom says political stability and a great geographical location give this project serious potential…
These Two Dirt-Cheap Mining Stocks Are Poised for Upswings
Oil-and-Gas Small-Cap Ascent Resources (AST) Poised to Climb
Penny Sleuth UK’s Tom Bulford says Ascent Resources (LON:AST), a small-cap company in the oil-and-gas business, has great potential.
It has a conservative business strategy. It operates only in stable political climates. It prefers on-shore to off-shore projects. And it targets the relatively more stable natural gas market over oil.
Tom says Ascent’s stock has performed poorly in the last year. But high expectations over a new exploration project in Italy’s Po Valley could trigger a major rally.
‘Disappearing’ Plastic Could Send Symphony (SYM) Soaring
Tom Bulford says penny stock Symphony Environmental Technologies (LON:SYM) could be about to make a breakout. It produces an additive that makes plastic bags oxo-biodegradable. This means the bags ‘disappear’ in a short space of time, leaving no harmful residues. Major retailers across the world are beginning to adopt the product, and sales were up 73% y-o-y in the first half of 2008.
Political Blame Game Spells Trouble for British Pound
Penny Sleuth’s Tom Bulford says Britain’s politicians and banking bosses are desperately trying to blame this financial crisis on external factors. Nobody is willing to accept responsibility for the reckless business practices of the past decade. This spells more bad news for UK stocks and the British pound…
Stadium (SDM): A London Stock That’s a Play on China
With the cost of electricity being what it is, we could all do with using less, says Penny Sleuth UK editor Tom Bulford.
This has presented an opportunity to Stadium Group (LON:SDM), a small company with an admirable record of growth, not least in terms of a rising annual dividend payment.
Although not the most exciting stock in the world - the company makers a diverse range of standard electronic products - Stadium’s fundamentals are solid. And with a factory in China, it offers investors a road to low-cost Chinese manufacturing through a London-listed stock…
Nexus Management (NXS): A Penny Stock With Great Potential
Penny Sleuth’s Tom Bulford thinks he has found a penny share with a huge profit potential for investors. Nexus Management (LON: NXS) offers IT support, but looking to dramatically expand its operations through the US. The company is franchising out its on-site support and installation operations. Tom says its close relationship with a major online electronics retailer in the U.S. makes Nexus well-placed for rapid growth, which would send the stock a long way skyward.
Tom Bulford Says Planet Payment (PPTR) Could Fly High
An average of 3% is added to the value of each credit card transaction made in a foreign country.
Credit cards are used to pay for over $5 trillion worth of goods and services a year. About 4% of this is spent in foreign currencies. This means banks make $6 billion a year on foreign currency transactions.
Tom Bulford in Penney Sleuth UK says Planet Payment (LON:PPTR), a £30m company with a quote on AIM, aims to tap into this market. And, if the company can maintain its growth, it’s certainly one to watch…
