Investors turning their attention to industrials

Investors with shares in the financial stocks have had a lot to smile about given their record performance

Investors with shares in the financial stocks have had a lot to smile about given their record performance. While brokers are still predicting further upside the potential for substantial gains is fairly limited.

Many investors have already taken profits, cashing in some shares while searching for new opportunities to increase funds. According to brokers, investors are turning their attention to industrial stocks for gains now while those companies with an exposure to the Irish economy, or sensitivity to interest rate movements, are also in vogue.

Those worth looking at include CRH, Readymix, and Grafton in the construction sector, while Dunloe and Green properties should also offer potential.
