Esat and Ryanair have proved to be very much the darlings of the market in recent weeks. Both companies have been on the road aggressively selling their stories to fund managers and analysts around the world seem suitably impressed. Ryanair chief executive Mr Michael O'Leary's presentations have triggered an immediate surge in the company's share price on a number of occasions so far. If the pattern of the last few months is maintained, investors could make a nice profit by buying the shares ahead of his next roadshow and selling them again shortly afterwards.
