While stock markets worldwide have rallied this year on fading fears of a global recession, a number of stocks have been left behind. However, the London-listed company's stock is expected to rise by 143% over the next 12 months, according to the consensus price target of six analysts. Brooke expects the outperform-rated shares to rise by more than 150% to 50p (£0.50, or $0.64) over the next 12 months. Vanquis' stock went another leg lower after it announced the departure of its CFO earlier this month. However, the median average of analyst price targets points to an upside potential of 148% over the next 12 months.
