A defensive play.Has had a great move, but he likes what they've done by cleaning up the movie distribution and putting it into an income trust. Still making decent money off the CSI franchise. Have the specialty channel. Could be a takeout.
(A Top Pick Feb 27/06. Up 26.5%.) Still likes. Could be an acquisition in the mix. Generating a fair amount of cash, buying back stock and reducing debt.
(A Top Pick Dec 1/06. Up 21%.) Takeover by CanWest (CGS-T). The review will take a little while and could run into the fall. He sold his holdings sometime back.
