Questions to ask during tariff threats: How is the customer concentration?

Suppose you have found a company that sustains little impact from tariffs, survived the last recession relatively unscathed, has no debt, and pays a solid dividend and has a low payout ratio. Are you safe? Well maybe, but now you need to worry about other companies. In a recession, many companies experience sharp slowdowns. Some will not survive. If your “secure” company has 65 per cent of its business with another company, now you also need to worry about that other company. Companies with high levels of customer concentration are always riskier but in a recession that concentration risk becomes even more acute. Ideally, you want to own a company with no customer accounting for more than 10 per cent of its business.

The DeepSeek threat is overblown; we're not seeing mass cancellation of orders at Nvidia, but even an increase--chips are sold out for the year. Alphabet just praised its relationship with NVDA. And yet, NVDA hasn't recovered from January's DeepSeek news. He trimmed his holding, but still owns a lot of shares. However, the White House has made NVDA a political football. Shares should not have fallen in the first place.

Averaging down.

Not something his firm is all that predisposed to doing. One of the most dangerous phrases that gets tossed around in investing is "buy low, sell high". A better discipline is to "buy high, sell higher" -- that's the approach in their momentum mandate, and it works very well. Momentum is a force of nature not only in physics, but also in the investing world.

Considerations during tariff uncertainty: Does your company pay a dividend?

If so, what is the payout ratio? A dividend won’t always stop a stock from falling. Just look at BCE Inc. for confirmation of this. Its current yield is 13.4 per cent, but its stock is down 28 per cent in the past year. This, of course, is because investors fear it will cut its dividend. But for a stock paying a dividend that is not likely to be cut, the dividend can provide both a floor for a stock price, and ongoing income for investors who hold that stock throughout a recession. Secure dividends might lessen the pain of any continued market decline. When looking at stocks you own, take a look at their dividend history and, importantly, their payout ratio. A company that has paid dividends for 45 years and with a payout ratio of only 15 per cent is probably going to be secure. Note we said “secure” and not “safe,” as no dividend is guaranteed, ever.

Tech leads relief rally

Markets extended Tuesday’s gains as Trump indicated that he won’t replace U.S. Fed Chair, Jerome Powell, despite recent threats, and stated that he will reduce the 145% tariff on China, though did not elaborate. Wednesday markets jumped on this sentiment, but faded by the close. The S&P finished 1.67% higher, though was twice as high earlier, while the Nasdaq gained 2.5% or over 400 points and the Dow 1.07%.

Influential names included Nvidia up 3.86%, Super Micro Computer by 7.59%, Palantir 7.27% and Tesla 5.37% despite a Q1 miss, but fueled by its controversial CEO, Elon Musk, announcing he will spend less time in Washington and more running his company, which has nosedived in recent weeks. Meanwhile, Enphase Energy plunged 15.65%. The U.S. 10-year yield held around 4.391% while Bitcoin rose another 3% to US$93,890.

Similarly, the TSX faded into the close, but still advanced 0.69% as sectors were mixed. Tech soared, but healthcare and materials lagged the most. Whitecap Resources was the most influential name, slipping 1.84% as Baytex fell 2.56%. Capstone Copper jumped 8.58%, Celestica 7.7% and First Quantum Minerals 9.42%. Gold declined US$86 but still remained near records highs at US$3,294, while WTI declined 2.15% to US$62.35.

Recession.

Everyone brings up this word, but it's such a low probability. You can have slower growth, absolutely, with all the tariff rhetoric. But he doesn't think it's going to actually result in a recession. The situation is self-inflicted by Trump, and we've seen over the last couple of days how he can dial it back. He and his people are watching the market and they know how to rig it.
