Findel - Extraordinary growth continues in peak period

Product revenue growth of 12% in the last 10 comparable weeks is extraordinary in todayâ€™s retail climate and it underpins our reiterated 7% earnings growth forecast. With Education responding to turnaround measures, unencumbered by leases, and with the balance sheet strengthening further, Findel should logically be rated as one of the stronger retailers in the sector.

Henderson Opportunities Trust - A differentiated exposure to smaller companies

With a focus on long-term growth, Henderson Opportunities Trust (HOT) seeks investment opportunities across the breadth of the UK market. This includes a strong bias towards smaller and earlier-stage companies with significant potential to become tomorrow’s leading British businesses.
