CCL Industries (CCL.B-T) has received mixed reviews from experts, highlighting both its strong performance and concerns about its market position. The company is noted for its dominance in label production, with a successful track record of acquisitions that expand its market reach. Analysts emphasize the positive impact of share buybacks and recent good quarterly earnings, alongside expectations for continued growth. However, there are concerns about the lack of a compelling, long-term investment thesis, with some suggesting that CCL may not be as dynamic as it once was in terms of its expansion potential. Despite this, the overall sentiment leans toward cautious optimism regarding future performance and share value growth.

Avery,AVY

TOP PICK

Manufacturer of containers for cosmetics, consumers product line. Also makes labels that is the strongest part of their business. 46 manufacturing operations globally.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 9/06. Up 20.7%.) A multinational consumer-products company. Still a Buy.

TOP PICK

A Canadian based multinational consumer products company. World's largest producer of pressure sensitive product labels. Big producer of aluminum aerosol cans. Earnings have been better than expected. Raised their dividend. Beneficiary of a weaker Cnd$.

BUY

Canadian based world class, world wide packaging company specializing in pressure sensitive labels and aluminum aerosol cans. Has gone sideways in the last few months because of higher aluminum prices and larger companies have cut back on their label inventories. These are both temporary.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 1/05. Down 2.5%.) Had a nice run and then came back. Produce pressure sensitive labels and aluminum aerosol cans. Aluminum prices came up a lot, so customers switched back to steel. Still likes.

HOLD

Recently reported and the results were a little bit shy of expectations. The high price of aluminum has squeezed their margins. Thinks it will pause for a while until aluminum prices stabilize.

DON'T BUY

Has been going sideways because of the general malaise of the packaging industry. Doesn’t like the voting/non-voting share structure. Free cash flow generation is not enough to cover the capital expenditures.

WEAK BUY

Packaging for condiments, etc. A very stable company. Pretty hard to get excited about the stock. Clearly not a growth story. Will grow 3 to 5% a year. Recession resistant.

TOP PICK

A packaging company. Most of their operations are outside of Canada. 1) biggest pressure sensitive label business in the world, 2) plastic tubing and 3) aluminum aerosol cans. Just reported much better than expected profits. Have raised their dividend.

BUY

Packaging business. One of his favourite industrial stocks in Canada. Products are in all strong growth markets. Lots of upside potential.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sept 20/05. Down 7.5%.) A good Canadian growth story. Undervalued compared to almost any other packaging company in North America. Would still be a buyer here.

TOP PICK

A packaging company. Have sensitive labeling and are consolidating it globally. Also make aluminum aerosol containers which is a huge grwoth business with higher margins than plain aerosol. Also make plastic tubes which hasn't done well, but is being turned around.

TOP PICK

There's more upside in the stock. Was in the custom filling industry and is now a pure packaging company. The biggest aluminum aerosol producer which is a fast growing market. The biggest pressure sensitive label company in the world. The plastic tube business has turned around and is starting to make money and they will be a consolidator there.

BUY

A great company If you are a trader, sell it, but if you are a long term investor, keep it and you will not be disappointed. Good yield.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 17/05. Up 11.5%.) Pleased that it's up, but not sure why. Sold one of its major divisions, took in a lot of cash and haven't announced how they are going to redeploy that.
