National Grid prides itself on a highly risk-averse business model, and yesterday's half-year results go some way to vindicating the strategy.

It is too soon to tell whether the City's underlying fear — that Capita's years of consistent double-digit growth are ending — will be realised. However, in the interim, professional investors may prove unwilling to pay 721¾p, or 17 times 2010 earnings, if that trajectory is in doubt. For that reason, take profits, writes the Times.

There are two main reasons to hold shares in distributor Electrocomponents. The first is the chunky yield and the second is the group's strong operating leverage to an upturn.

Thursday tips round-up: International Power, Micro Focus, Balfour Beatty

International Power is one of those companies that is a staple of the FTSE100 and yet somehow manages to be largely unknown. Yesterday's bullish statement sent the shares up sharply. Possible new projects in North Africa, Asia and the Gulf, make for strong growth prospects when world economies pick up again and power demand soars. Trading on just over nine times forecast full-year earnings while offering an attractive enough yield of about 5 per cent this year and next, we're buyers, says the Independent.

Wednesday tips round-up: Randgold, Schroders, InterContinental Hotels

As most things have crashed down around the feet of investors in the past year, so gold has enjoyed a revival as investors flocked to safer ground. As such, Randgold Resources, possibly the biggest company you might never have heard of, has cashed in. The mining group is the only pure gold miner on the FTSE 100 and, with the price of gold shooting through the $1,000 per ounce barrier over the past few months, so its shares have soared. It certainly isn't cheap, but we think there is still value in Randgold. The Independent recommends the shares as a 'buy'.

Tuesday tips round-up: G4S, IMI, Hiscox

Security firm G4S reported organic growth, which excludes the impact of acquisitions, down slightly to 4.2pc for the first nine months of the year, compared with 4.8pc in the first half. This is still a good result considering the current climate. They still look good value at around 12 times next year's earnings. This is slightly below European peer Securitas, and G4S arguably has a better strategy. This is a defensive stock that looks good in both a down and upturn. A solid buy for these uncertain times, thinks the Telegraph.
