Are you looking to add a little more oomph to your long-term share portfolio in 2015?
If so, here are five stocks which should be on your watchlist…
- iiNet Limited (ASX: IIN). Powering over 1.8 million services nationwide, this Western Australian garage start-up has grown into Australia's second largest DSL internet provider. And its share price has responded, quadrupling in the past five years. In 2015 however analysts are forecasting a healthy boost in earnings per share and a juicy fully franked dividend of 3.5%.
- Slater & Gordon Limited (ASX: SGH) is Australia's largest personal injury law firm. The $1.33 billion company has begun its expansion into the UK and, in just a few short years, already holds over 5% market share. The larger, highly fragmented marketplace will bear significant fruit for shareholders in FY15, with the company expecting 45% of revenues to be derived overseas.
- Woolworths Limited (ASX: WOW) needs no introduction given its huge store presence throughout the country and ownership of key retail brands such as Big W, Masters Home Improvement, Dan Murphy's and more. Despite its dividend and dominance across key product lines, Woolworths' shares aren't void of growth. In fact the 12% share price falls since August 2014 provides upside in the medium-term whilst its ongoing push into financial services provides long-term potential.
- Netcomm Wireless Ltd (ASX: NTC) is a micro-cap technology company specialising in the booming machine-to-machine (M2M) communications market. A recent shift in focus towards businesses has already proven to be very rewarding, with M2M now accounting for over 50% of revenues. Although its share price can be volatile, this little company could be at the start of a long growth runway.
- Yellow Brick Road Holdings Ltd (ASX: YBR) is small-cap diversified financial company which is not yet profitable. Although the likelihood of future profitability is an unknown, YBR is making strides towards increasing market share and looks to be a real long-term winner. Like Netcomm Wireless, it should be considered a higher-risk investment.
