29/07/2017 Argaam

NCB Capital has added 12 Tadawul-listed companies and the Riyad real estate traded fund (Riyad REIT) to its preferred stocks, in light of weak oil prices and their impact on the economy, the brokerage said in a market review.

 

The brokerage has categorized its preferred stocks in three bundles that should give investors seeking sustainable returns and profit growth or both, a clear idea about the best investments.

 

The first bundle of stocks includes Advanced Petrochemical Co., Jarir, STC, Saudi Airlines Catering, SGS, Arriyadh Development Co. and Riyad REIT. They were chosen based on their attractive and sustainable dividends, and the general projection of each company’s growth.
