Friday preview: Shire, WPP

Thu, 27th Oct 2011 18:21

Up-and-coming drug group Shire may have a little more excitement to offer than its bigger peers who have already reported this week. Credit Suisse is looking for strong sales of the hyperactivity treatment Vyvanse and an update on the US regulatory filing for Replagal, a treatment for Fabry's disease, a rare condition that causes full-body pain.A lot of market pundits believe that if a recession is on its way then advertising companies such as WPP are the first to notice, so Friday's trading update from Sir Martin Sorrel's global powerhouse could make interesting reading.The company has been its usual busy self on the acquisition trail, expanding its footprint in Asia and Africa. JP Morgan Cazenove predicts that WPP will post organic revenue growth of a little under 5%, leaving the company a fair bit to do if it wants to hit its full year targets.INTERIMSIndian Hotels Ltd.
