LONDON (ShareCast) - In the Telegraph the Questor column hands out a rather brutal judgement on supermarket chain Morrisons. It’s got an enthusiastic Chief Executive, is experimenting with convenience store formats and has launched lots of new ranges but its market share is still around 12.2%. To make matters worse the shares have yielded just 3.3% in the last 12 months. Questor, who recommended the stock last year, says sell.

Balfour Beatty isn’t inspiring much confidence over at the Times. Tempus sees tough construction markets in both the group’s key regions, the US and UK. The infrastructure giant is making money by selling pubic private partnership (PPP) investments but is that a real substitute for growth? No thinks Tempus who says, at eight times earnings, the stock isn’t going anywhere: leave.

Tempus also thinks shares in shipping services firm Clarkson will struggle to leave port. It is a “proxy” for world trade says the column but that is no particular reason to jump on board: leave.

Nichols, the food firm which owns the Vimto and Levi Roots brands has done well of late, thinks Tempus. While the UK market is difficult, international sales have been growing and are more profitable. But trading at 16 times earnings, and having risen 40% in the last 12 months, there’s not much room for improvement: leave.
