Sunday tips round-up: RM, BTG, National Grid

RM provides a wide range of technical tools for schools in Britain, the Continent, the Middle East, Asia and America. Floated in 1994, the group has maintained or raised its dividend every year since and hopes to continue doing so for the foreseeable future. RM shares were trading at about 220p two years ago but today they are 1723/4p. This seems unfair. The business has grown steadily since then and should continue to do so over the next decade. Buy, says the Daily Mail. The Daily Mail recommended BTG just after it had taken over rival Protherics. That was December 2008, when the price was 155p. Now it is 175p so it has risen 13 per cent in just over a year. The performance is reasonable so far, but there should be plenty more growth to come. BTG is well respected, well managed and has good prospects. Buy, says the Daily Mail. National Grid shares are trading on March 2010 multiple of 10.8 times and the Telegraph's stance remains buy. The shares were first recommended at 554p on March 15 last year and are up 15pc compared with a market up 37pc.
