As of Jun 09, 2026. Market Open.
Doesn't agree that AI is going to ruin construction businesses. The design portion of projects may be streamlined through AI, such as accelerating gathering data, but the fundamental narrative doesn't change. The Build Canada projects must be good for construction companies.
Not a sector he'd play, but it's OK at these levels.
Tremendous run, and now some engineering firms are under pressure. A laggard. You want to own things people really care about, and he's been very selective and carving out underperformers.
Midterm election years tend to have weakness in June, July, August. We'll see. Market breadth is not ideal right now. Look for better opportunities.
Very strong portfolio of engineering and design and consulting. Plays into infrastructure, energy, and environment. Focus on nuclear will be important, with 15% of revenue coming from there. If Hwy 407 were sold at a good price, would be a catalyst to create value (but he wouldn't buy something just because there might be a deal down the road). Yield is 0.1%.
(Analysts’ price target is $70.31)
Sold her holdings when they ran into all their difficulties. There is still not a full picture of what happened in the last few years. Have made some senior management and board changes, which is positive. Haven’t clearly laid out what their strategy is. She would rather wait for a clear picture.
