LONDON (SHARECAST) - UBS has begun coverage on UK bookmakers William Hill and Ladbrokes with respective ‘buy’ and ‘sell’ ratings.

The broker has a 300p price target on William Hill and a 310p price target on Ladbrokes.

The bookmakers have shown the defensiveness of the betting sector by outperforming leisure stocks, UBS said.

However, while it believes that low-level betting on sports is habitual, it added that it remains to be seen how defensive betting on machines that pay out £500 is.
