Builders' arguments bring steady earnings

Article Abstract:

James R. Knowles is a construction consultant which joined the United Kingdom Alternative Investment Market in June 1998. The company has offices in Malaysia and Hong Kong and is studying plans for offices in South Korea and Japan, claiming that the Far East economic slowdown has not affected its business. The company's growth potential is not reflected in its stock price. The company helps solve disputes which take time to settle, and this provides protection against short-term cyclical changes.
