Brexit investment opportunities: shares I’m buying after the referendum

Brexit investment opportunities are everywhere, says ISA millionaire Robbie Burns. Here, he tells loveMONEY what he’s been buying since we voted to leave the EU.

The unexpected Brexit vote caused a slump in a lot of shares as people sold them heavily.

To me, it resembles a lovely sale where you can get nice cheap stuff – in this case shares.

There's an old saying from the master of investment, Warren Buffett, that the best time to buy is when everyone is fearful.

There's also great quote from Benjamin Graham: “In the short-term the market is a voting machine but in the long-run it’s a weighing machine.”

So I bought a few nice companies at lovely sale prices 2-3 days after the post Brexit sell off.

Consider the weaker pound

First up, I bought some Next Fifteen. It only trades a small amount in sterling so the weak pound doesn't affect it much.

In fact it stands to benefit from a weaker pound.

Growth in North America is excellent and it has won more business from Google and Facebook.

This looks a lovely share to sit and hold for a couple of years for more growth to come and shouldn't be affected by further Brexit fears. So I have tucked in!

Photo Me also benefits from a weaker pound. This company provides photo booths, which are still in big demand. And the company holds an absolute ton of cash. (Probably in pound coins!)

There's a huge dividend, and a special dividend coming up later this year and I happily bought some.

Telecom Plus provides gas, electricity and telecoms so the Brexit vote doesn't even affect it so again that was an easy buy – and it has a 5% dividend.

Again I think this was marked down for no other reason than panic selling.

Investing in the inevitable

Another share I was very pleased to see marked down (although perhaps not a result of Brexit) is a company that is guaranteed never to run out of customers.

Indeed it’s a company a lot of us might end up using: that's Dignity – a chain of funeral parlours!

Oh and it owns the places that turn us all into ashes.... so I added some more of those.

It’s a morbid thing to say, but death really does pay.

Sadly though, it doesn't give shareholders any discounts on coffins. But in my view, as a shareholding it's a dead cert!

So I am very happy with my Brexit bargains – and I'm sniffing around for more.
