Tesco in its sector
Article Abstract:
Tesco has performed well among UK food retailers, though some analysts have doubts about the sector. Three brokers from a sample of six rate the company's shares a buy, two rate them a hold, and one is a seller. The buyers are Kleinwort Benson, Peel Hunt and Charterhouse Tilney. Credit Lyonnais Laing sees Sainsbury as offering better value and is a holder, as is Paribas, which is becoming more negative on food retailing. Nikko Securities is the seller and is also concerned about the sector.
