BUY
Very early in the cycle so this is a great opportunity to Buy. As the stimulus package starts to take hold, good things have started happening here. Recently raised their guidance to $3.25, well above what the Street was looking for.
BUY
This is a cyclical and they are very early in their cycle. Will grow with the economic cycle. They are still replenishing dealer inventories.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Likes this company but thinks the valuation is a bit stretched. It is on her radar screen on a pullback.
BUY
Dealer inventories are still quite low so this has to be built up. Stimulus program will create a lot of work in 2010-2011. China is also a big part of the business.
BUY
Great company and well diversified. A lot of penetration into the Asian market. Dominant supplier of heavy machinery in China and there is something like 250 subway routes that are going to be built over the next 5 years.
DON'T BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Trading at 23X earnings so he would not be a buyer.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 14/09. Up 65.3%.) Numbers are just starting to turn around. Dealer inventories are still low. Global expansion and the weak US$ play will continue.
COMMENT
Has benefited from the large amount of infrastructure spending in the US. Strong company with a global franchise. A weak US$ will help them tremendously.
BUY
Inventories are about 60% lower than last year, so you could see some re-stocking by the dealers. This is a company that is going to see earnings revisions higher.
DON'T BUY
Very cyclical. Great company. A lot of global infrastructure projects will benefit them but is already priced in. With the 50% run-up on the market he would want a better price, possibly low $40's. 3.25% yield.
COMMENT
A lot of exposure to residential construction. Had some issues because of their finance arm but they managed to get through it okay but the ability of their customers to buy have had difficulty getting financing. Would prefer the dealership companies such as Toromont (TIH-T) or Finning (FTT-T). If you have a 5 or 10-year view it could be a good entry point.
BUY
Had the worst year in 50 and is a play on the global expansion. Thinks there is a lot more room for this company to grow in this expansion.
DON'T BUY
Not a fan of Caterpillar (CAT-N) or Deere (DE-N) because of balance sheet leverages but are also tied to global construction demand, a cyclical recovery. Both of gotten ahead of themselves recently.
HOLD
Had higher lows, which is positive. $47 seems to be a resistance point. Moving averages have righted themselves with the 50-day being above the 200-day. Could come back and test the $40 level.
SELL
Over the balance of 12 months, earnings should be pretty strong. Earnings revisions have been moving up. Some of the estimates have been lowered for the next quarter. Probably not a bad move to Sell and move onto something else in the industrial space such as 3M (MMM-N).
