Value on the phone
Article Abstract:
Value investors see some companies that are not well-known as providing possible investment opportunities. AG Barr is one such company. The company is based in Glasgow, Scoitland, and makes soft drinks. Well known companies offer efficient prices, but this means that it is less easy to make money from their stocks. Barr could bring benefits due to having a low profile. The company offer a strong earnings per share growth rate, though its markets have shown little growth. Barr could be hit by external factors such as sugar price rises, but is also efficient as a producer.
