Image source: Getty Images FTSE 250 fast-food retailer Greggs (LSE: GRG) is one of those companies whose share price I find difficult to square with its fundamental worth. I think many firms in the FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 are undervalued to one degree or another.

Image source: Getty Images Grocery delivery and warehouse robotics specialist Ocado Group (LSE: OCDO) is one of the most unpredictable stocks on the entire FTSE 250. It’s seen massive highs and crushing lows over the years, but lately it’s mostly been the latter.

The shares are down 38% over the last 12 months, and 76% over five years. While its retail partnership with Marks & Spencer has performed solidly…

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction is a collective imperative for Asia, a region increasingly facing the adverse impacts of climate change. As Asian economies chart their development pathways, they are finding innovative ways to align economic and climate imperatives.

Image source: Getty Images Yesterday (26 March) President Trump announced that he’d be imposing 25% tariffs starting next week on all foreign-made cars. Not just the finished products, but it also applies to some car parts and components. As a result, it doesn’t surprise me that stock markets around the world are trading lower today. Here are the potential implications. Taking the hit for exports The immediate concern that comes to mind relates to the impact on UK car manufacturing. For example, consider Aston Martin (LSE:AML).

His new forecast suggests 52.2% downside potential for the stock from Wednesday’s close. “The seeds for the current sales weakness pre-date the recent brand issues,” Tyndall, who has a reduce rating on the stock, wrote in a note to clients Thursday. Tesla’s aging products with limited driving assistance technology have pressured the company in the China market, according to Tyndall. Meanwhile, the electric vehicle maker has struggled with European fleet buyers, which constitute 60% of the…
