Barclays Capital has named six London-listed stocks to buy as it believes the U.K. stock market is currently "cheap" and "under-owned." Two of the investment bank's picks — Drax Group and IG Holdings — are also predicted to rise by more than 50% in the next 12 months, thanks to several policy tailwinds. Drax Group Drax, which runs one of the last remaining biomass and coal-fueled power stations in the U.K., is one of Barclays' preferred stocks. IG Group Shares of stockbroker IG Group could rise by 55% over the next year to £12 a share, Barclays analysts have said. The investment bank believes a high-interest rate environment allows the stockbroker to earn interest on a customer's deposit, further increasing its profit margins.

The yield curve is already signaling that a recession could be on the horizon. I think that's pretty clear," fund manager Steven Glass told CNBC's "Street Signs Asia" Monday. So, we think the bond market suggests that could likely be a recession in probably the next year," Glass added. An inverted yield curve occurs when interest rates on shorter-term U.S. Treasury bonds are higher than longer-term ones. With inflation likely to remain higher-for-longer in the near term and companies facing earnings pressure, Glass said he is focusing on companies with earnings visibility.

☆ Asset manager names 9 'cheap' stocks to buy as recession fears grow

I don't think people realize just how inverted the 2-10 year [Treasury yield] is at the moment, which is really historically a strong signal of an imminent recession," Glass told "Squawk Box Asia" on Monday. 'Cheap' stocks to buy In this environment, Glass selected nine stocks that he said, "look particularly cheap given their growth outlook." His favorites are major U.S. discount retailer Dollar General , investment company 3i whose largest asset is European discount retailer Action, and B & M Value Retail. On 3i, he noted that Action accounts for 50% of its investment portfolio, and the discount retailer is a "beneficiary of rich-poor divide" and consumers trading down. He also said that Action is "recession and inflation resistant," with an attractive valuation at a more-than 20% discount to its net asset value.
