These 7 UK shares turned £50k into £550k
Earlier this month, The Financial Times highlighted seven UK shares that had returned around 1,000% on average over the last 20 years (turning a £50k investment into around £550k). The shares were Bunzl, Intertek, Howden Joinery, Compass, RELX, Experian, and Diploma.
| Company | What it does | Five-year average ROCE |
| Compass | Food catering services | 12.3% |
| RELX | Data and analytics services | 22.6% |
| Howden Joinery | Supplies kitchens | 25.6% |
| Bunzl | Distributes products to businesses | 14.4% |
| Experian | Credit data services | 17.1% |
| Diploma | Seals, controls, and life sciences | 14.5% |
| Intertek | Quality and safety testing services | 20.9% |
As for stocks with the potential to return 1,000% over the next 20 years, I see plenty on the London Stock Exchange.
But one I want to highlight is Cerillion (LSE: CER). It’s a fast-growing technology company that specialises in back office software for telecoms companies and other businesses.
