  • 3 FTSE Shares Poised to Double in 12 Months, Analysts Say
    April 4, 2026, 8:31 AM EDT. FTSE investors face challenges after a tough month, but some mid-cap shares may offer significant upside. Analysts highlight Telecom Plus, Craneware, and GlobalData as candidates to potentially double their value within a year. Telecom Plus, a multi-utility provider, boasts a 7.56% dividend yield and 28.8% return on equity, though it faces regulatory and competitive risks. Craneware, supplying hospital software, shows 45% earnings growth but trades at a high valuation sensitive to U.S. healthcare spending. GlobalData, a data analytics firm, grew revenue 12.8% aided by acquisitions and AI initiatives, yet carries moderate debt and risks from economic slowdown. Investors should weigh growth prospects against sector and market risks, with Telecom Plus receiving particular attention for its defensive qualities and current valuation.
