There's nothing not to like. Now for the broker upgrades.

- SSP Group reported a large rise in annual profits after it boosted revenue at its food and beverage outlets in airports and other travel locations.

Underlying pre-profit jumped 38.3% £148.7m, while revenue grew by 19.5% to £2,379.1m, assisted by currency movements.

Like-for-like sales grew by 3.1%, driven by air passenger traffic.

The company declared a final dividend of 4.9p per share, bringing the full year dividend to 8.1p, an increase of 50%, which the company said partly reflected an increased in the payout ratio to 40%.

"The new financial year has started in line with our expectations and, whilst a degree of uncertainty always exists around passenger numbers in the short term, we continue to be well placed to benefit from the structural growth opportunities in our markets," chief executive Kate Swann said.

Yes, well Barclays have 625 so it should be ok to cross the border...!
I expect its those zeros after the 6 that are causing the problem ;-)

What, you’re not following some weird guru like investment theme, Malcolm, are you?
Like the rest of us... ;-)?

I think I will just pack stock-picking in and buy shares that only go up in price in future!!! Lol

Read across today from WH Smith numbers re their travel shop business.

[sogoesit] 12/10/2017 10:56

Accumulated on Monday, with trepidation ;-)
At around 550

Have been travelling round the Far East last few weeks... do those folks know how to eat!
Food everywhere; in some places, like Kuala Lumpur airport, the smell can even be sickening but nearly all food outlets I saw were constantly bustling.
Hopefully they will build on the footprint they have in Hong Kong and China.
