Chemring Group - still offering strong upside, now 522p, TP 620p
Mark Watson-Mitchell - 24.02.2026 Last Friday, following the publication of its AGM Trading Update, the shares of the Chemring Group (LON:CHG) were driven down by traders taking them from the 536p level achieved on Thursday, to a low of 493p the next day. I could not see the reason why the market had taken them down, so I shouted that at 496p they offered a cheap buying opportunity and that investors should take advantage of the bargain on offer. There was a massive 2.6m sha
Northern Bear - cheap buyers moving in, now 123p
Mark Watson-Mitchell - 24.02.2026 I cannot find any reasons for the recent drift-off in the shares of Northern Bear (LON:NTBR). Is it just the general lack of interest in the construction sector? They fell to as low as 107p last Friday, after having been treading water in the 125p to 140p price range for some months. I like the make-up of this little Gateshead-based building services group. This morning, the shares have picked back up to trade around 123p, at which point, a

James Fisher - submarine rescue In just under three weeks, we will see James Fisher & Sons (LON:FSJ) announce its Final results for the year to end-December 2025. I have followed this group for over thirty years, it has had its ups and downs in share price terms, but now I do feel that it is definitely on the up again. Less than a month ago, on Thursday 29th January, I featured the group once more, noting that the group's Latest Trading Update was bullish enough to help to p

However, by the middle of this week, they were back up to 780p, before closing at 740p yesterday. Not only d

Mark Watson-Mitchell - 20.02.2026 This morning's AGM Trading Update from the Chemring Group (LON:CHG) saw traders knock the share price down to 496p - which is the wrong price.

Costain Group – almost at a Five-Year High and just 9p short of the SQC Target Price of 199.50p – still very undervalued – Finals due soon
Mark Watson-Mitchell – 19.02.2026 Yesterday almost 1.3m shares in the Costain Group (LON:COST) changed hands in the market, closing 3p higher at 190.60p.
