HILL & SMITH....ardman buy recommendation (HILS)     

cloudcatcher - 17 Jul 2008 09:46

Good Information, this appears to be a cheap stock was in my portfolio, sold at nearly 400 but am back in now, undervalued as not greatly affected by banking woes or housebuilders very big in infrastructure and petrochem...not a flier but good solid stock undervalued for no logical reason I reckon imho? ...anybody got any others like this that have got caught up in the stockmarket lows and are pretty well unaffected by the real world problems?
