Jane,
Thanks for adding on to the list for all of us to consider in our picks
for the next couple of days. As an investor, I always find it beneficial
to read what others have got their eyes on, and a site such as Sharechat
is an excellent vehicle for us to share information with each other. 
Much of the rationale I often give for a certain stock are rather long
and laborious but then, I am a stickler for doing my homework before
investing. I try to qualify my contributions though by saying that "I
believe we can expect to see investor attention on such and such a
stock" unless of course I strongly believe that a stock will definitely
rise for an hour, a day..or maybe two (a rarity nowadays). But then such
comments would only be my opinion and readers should, and undoubtedly
will, form their own opinions from the information that I have shared
with them. 

As for your selections, I agree that FFS, GPG and CEN are all good picks
for the longer term investor as amongst other things, I believe they are
also rather undervalued at the moment. I am not too sure about
Force/Ihug though as their latest acquisitions hardly lifted the
barometer. I am still trying to determine why there hasn't been much or
any interest but there was an article on the front page of the last
"Headliner" questioning the value that Force can bring to Ihug. Maybe
that had something to do with it but who can tell. The stock is down to
69c now but then it might soar through the roof today and for the sake
of Force/Ihug punters, I hope it does. 
Overall therefore, it does promise to be an interesting next couple of
days and I have no doubt that we'll have more to talk about later this
evening.

Happy investing today,

Frank
