TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

SSL is an integrated chemical and mining company based in South Africa.  It trades under 10x earnings, under book value and supports a ROE of 21%.  We like how cash reserves are growing while the company is reducing debt aggressively and buying back shares.  We recommend placing a stop loss at $11, looking to achieve $25 — upside potential over 50%.  Yield 4.5%

(Analysts’ price target is $25.77)
