BG Group plc (ADR) (BRGYY), ROLLS ROYCE HOLDINGS (RYCEF): Should I Invest in These 5 FTSE 100 Shares?

I reckon the macroeconomic environment is likely to continue its recovery in the coming years, and that could encourage customers to increase their marketing spend. I’m likely to buy the share-price dips.

Insurance
The directors at Aviva Plc (ADR) (LSE:AV) are working to turn the company’s declining business around by focusing on cash-flow growth and debt reduction. The company has also sold off operations in markets including the U.S., Russia, Malaysia, and Sri Lanka, which, although reducing net asset value, allows concentration on key markets. Very recent trading seems encouraging, and I’m optimistic about the turnaround potential, so I might buy some shares.

Food production and retailing
Sugar production and distribution earns Associated British Foods plc (ADR) (OTCMKTS:ASBFY) around 46% of its profit, and the company aims to be the world’s leading sugar player. The Primark clothing chain brings in 32% of profits, with the rest earned on its food brands, such as Kingsmill and HP sauce. Recent double-digit growth is encouraging, and I’m watching the shares for an attractive entry point.
