Malcolm Stacey: My first tip of the year for 2014 is Lloyds Group at 79p

It's not a pleasant job to recommend buying shares in one of the big UK banks. The catalogue of misfortunes attending these once great institutions is enormous. Every few months, or so it seems, they are beset with a new disaster.

You would expect these sorry events to bring down the share price like a grand piano down a lift shaft. But usually the share is hardly touched. This is because there is so much money attached to banking that the biggest of fines does not really matter too much.

Anyone buying Lloyds (LLOY) not so long ago would enjoy a doubling of their money today. The price is still shy of 80p, but I'm hoping it will rise to £1.00 before too long.

The government still owns a lot of Lloyds shares. Big traders do not like this curb on independence. So the share price is being held back artificially. Also, the government wants to offer their shares at a goodly price, so they will be willing the management to do marvellous things with the company.

And when the shares are offered to the public – and I expect this disposal before the next election – there will probably be the same kind of gold rush we saw with the Royal Mail issue. So if you've already bought the share, then you can expect a tidy jump when the government stock is sold.

We can't really tell how well the bank is doing at the moment. But we can take an educated guess that they will have learned from past mistakes and their act will be a lot more together than it used to be. Could be worth a punt.

Malcolm Stacey My second tip of the year is Compass Group at 959p

I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

My second tip for 2014 is the world's biggest caterer Compass (CPG). You only have to look at its charts to see why I like this one. It is what they call in the trade a SSG – a low steady grower. The trend is relentlessly North.

This is no surprise as Compass is the world's biggest caterer. It sells prepared food in vending machines, workplaces, schools, airports, canteens, motorways, everywhere.

The revenues are a cool 17 billion pounds a year. It employs 400,000 people. And as the whole world is mobile these days, everybody wants feeding on the move. The market is huge and growing daily.

Compass has an experienced management team which has avoided big mistakes. And it is a share which will not fall much, even in the hardest times, because we all need nosh.

The company also pays a decent dividend ( the current year tield is a roick solid 2.7%). Its November results were chipper, showing a 4.3% organic revenue growth. This was pushed forward by a 10% expansion into emerging markets.

But if you worry about emerging markets be comforted by the fact that nearly half of its business is done in the USA.

Seems a safe hedge to me - perhaps of special interest to those with a cautious approach to 2014.

My third share tip for 2014 is Advanced Oncotherapy at 3.25p

Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO) develops and makes better and cheaper ways of destroying cancer cells with new technologies, including proton beam therapy (PBT).

Where conventional cancer radiotherapy treatment can be likened to using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, PBT accurately targets cancerous cells to within a hair's breadth. There is little, if any, damage to surrounding tissue.

All this is done with the aid of pioneering technology which has worldwide approval from specialists, though not necessarily supported by the NHS – yet.

The technology follows the acquisition in 2013 of a company called Adam from CERN, the large Hadron Collider scientists in Switzerland. That's right - technology used to harness the 'God particle' is now being adapted by Advanced to fight cancer.

What is interesting is that top cancer specialists have supported the venture and hold shares. During 2013, a number of medical heavyweights have joined the board, which now reads like a who's who of global cancer specialists.

So there's a lot of support from people who know what they are talking about.

The company has not made much money yet – the hopes are in the future. But shareshifters have already reaped benefit. The share price is around 3.25 pence, which is a big boost to the one penny tag a year ago. My personal target is 6p in 2014.

Yes, it's impossible to guarantee success with medical pioneers, as development costs are high and rival outfits sometimes make better discoveries down the line.

But cancer is an increasing problem as we all live longer and buying shares in this venture should benefit from an ageing population .
