Investors Chronicle – exploiting strong foreign exchange tailwinds

Simon Thompson says “Investors have yet to fully factor in (house broker Arden’s) massive earnings upgrade…(which is) solely based on rental income from the current portfolio and fund management fees on existing mandates, so the forecast risk is skewed to the upside.” He rates the shares a strong buy and believe his 56p price target could prove conservative.

Investors Chronicle – Anomalously priced fund managers

Simon Thompson summarises: ‘Rated on a discount to spot net asset value, trading on just 8 times forward earnings…, and with significant upgrades highly likely in eight weeks’ time, the investment case is very solid. In the circumstances, I rate First Property’s shares a strong buy…ahead of November’s interim results and my initial target price is 56p, coinciding with the all-time high dating back to the end of last year. Buy.’
