Brokers 2011 Stock Picks

You may have read my sharemarket picks for 2011 but for some light reading over the holidays lets take a look at some of the "professionals" picks from brokers and the like.

Please keep in mind that just like my picks there maybe some financial interest involved in picking them, there usually is, but in my case I disclose whether I have a holding in any of the stocks that I have picked. It is not clear from the NZ Herald article from where these picks originate as to whether the brokers have holdings or not. One would assume they did but they could of course just be theoretical selections.
