[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images I happily admit I’m not much of a growth share guy. Typically, my focus is on hunting in the UK stock market for consistent dividend payers in sectors that I like.

Given the volatility we’re seeing in the stock market at present, I thought I’d do a deep dive into one company that appears cheap compared to the FTSE 250 index. Prominent broadcaster ITV (LSE: ITV) looks cheap to me at face value. The company is a major player in UK television…

[ad_1] These strange-looking landscape features form at Mars’ south pole in springtime. They’re created when frozen carbon dioxide turns to gas in the rising temperatures. Image Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/University of Arizona Though it’s a cold, dead planet, Mars still has its own natural beauty about it. This image shows us something we’ll never see on Earth. Mars has only a thin, tenuous atmosphere, and most of it (95%) is carbon dioxide. When Martian winter arrives, CO2 freezes and forms a thick coating on the ground in the polar regions. It lies there dormant for months. As spring approaches, temperatures gradually warm.…

[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images I’m partial to the odd small-cap share, if it floats my boat. Unfortunately, these two penny stocks don’t, leaving me keen to avoid them. Beleaguered luxury brand The first stock’s Mulberry Group (LSE: MUL). Shares of the luxury accessories maker have fallen 76% in just under four years! This has seen the company’s market-cap slump to just £63m. Part of me thinks that’s too low for a company that posted £153m in FY24 sales (which ended in March). On the other hand, Mulberry’s being hammered by the global slowdown in demand for luxury goods. In…
