Stock valuations have been depressed since the EU referendum – but there will be long-term winners once the Brexit fog lifts, says professional investor Guy Anderson. Here, he picks picks three bargain stocks.

Each week, a professional investor tells us where he'd put his money. This week: Guy Anderson of the Mercantile Investment Trust highlights three British favourites.

Against the backdrop of heightened political risk in the UK and abroad, combined with a notable slowdown in global economic growth, seeing beyond the uncertainty can be challenging. However, because we focus on the attributes of individual businesses we can still unearth companies that are both fundamentally robust and have the potential to be long-term winners, even if the immediate geopolitical and economic climate is tough.
