Basil Read has grown tremendously
THE TOP 20
2 BASIL READ


Total score: 74; Historic score: 31; FM's score: 43


This is one of the companies that started growing off a low base just before the start of the FM's five-year assessment period, and just as the construction boom began to take off. The share price had been ailing for a long time, until the French controlling shareholders reverted to an SA management team. Like Grindrod at the end of the 1990s, it's the kind of share you wish you'd bought when it was out of fashion.
