DON'T BUY

A very interesting company. As activity picks up, particularly out West, this is going to be good for them. They service a lot of industries, not just oil and gas, but forestry and so on. Company has been run very well over the years. Always looks a little expensive, but for people who have held onto it for a long period of time, they have done very well. On a valuation basis, he would not be jumping in today.

DON'T BUY

He believes there is a bubble in utilities. You are getting very marginal growth, if at all and paying 17 time earnings. They reported they underperformed their numbers. This is a safety stock and people are using it for safety, so it won’t affect this stock much right now. He doesn’t like utilities and pipelines.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) He owns Canadian Utilities (CU-T) but this is actually cheaper.

COMMENT

Owns Canadian Utilities (CU-T) and some service assets out west. As interest rates went up a little bit, all the utilities got hit and this one went down with it. Very cheap stock. At some point, people will be in favour again for utilities. Prefers owning Canadian Utilities as it is a little more liquid and pays a higher dividend.

SELL

This is effectively a utility and benefited tremendously from the safety trade with bonds coming down from 4.5% to 1.5% 5 years ago. Stock recently dropped because of a rebalancing of portfolios. Expects we will only see higher interest rates for many years and this does not speak well for this company.

SELL

Sold his holdings a few months ago as he had thought it had become fairly valued. If you own, it never hurts to take a profit. This company is doing very well with the build out in the mining and oil/gas sectors.

HOLD

Chart shows a long upward trend from early 2010. Had a little bit of a spike on news of a share split. You can probably see it come back and test the $85 range. Boring name, but profitable.

SELL

(Market Call Minute.) Problem is that it owns Canadian Utilities (CU-T) which is trading up at a 30 year valuation high, very expensive and he wouldn’t hold either one.

BUY

Fabulous company. Very illiquid. Will benefit from growing sales to the oil sands. Nothing bad to say.

BUY
Great western Canadian success story. Has not looked at their balance sheet for a while. Their trailers house mining workers.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 8/10. Up 17.78%.) Had a major base in 2008-2009 and started a major uptrend in the middle of 2009 Has been in an uptrend ever since. Currently in a trading range, so he is still holding but has to decide if it is going to hold.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Sept 8/10, Up 18.34%) Still hasn’t met its target.
TOP PICK
Stock is in a major uptrend and above its 200 day moving average and is breaking out. Higher point/figure charts, which is why he likes. Has a subsidiary Canadian Utilities (CU-T), which is where the dividends come from giving you both capital gains and dividends.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 30/08. Down 25% but had a Stop at $48 so down 8.1%.)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 30/08 with a stoploss of $48. Down 27.19% without the stoploss, -8% with the stoploss.) Nice stability but wouldn't bother with it right now. If you own, Hold.
