PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 21/18, Up 26%) We saw a choppy consolidation. Then it broke to all time highs. He loaded up even more in late December.
TOP PICK
It just broke out to new all time highs with strong, strong volume. (Analysts’ price target is $1163.67)
TOP PICK
At 23 times earnings, it is still good value. There is really no great competitor. They have a mountain of cash and management is well invested. They do great acquisitions, are cost conscious, and he has great confidence in their strategy. Yield 0.45% (Analysts’ price target is $1163.67)
HOLD
Another 10 bagger. Growth by acquisition. Latest quarter was way better than expected. They've now started to declare the value of the assets. There's also some organic growth. Management team's fantastic. Paid a one-time dividend, which is good, but does it mean they have nothing else to spend their money on. Hang on to it.
BUY
They had a nice beat today and they are declaring a special dividend. They always manage to hit their numbers and have a good return on equity.
HOLD
It is well managed. They made a plethora of acquisitions. They are making tiny ones with a model that works. Don’t sell a company doing this well, although he prefers OTEX-T, which is a more sure bet. (Analysts’ price target is $11.32)
TOP PICK
The beautiful chart says it all. Going through a consolidation phase. Increased his exposure to this name. Yield is 0.6%. (Analysts’ price target is $1016.67)
COMMENT
Has been a tremendous stock to own over the last decade. But the sock is quite high at a tie when it is having its largest challenges to growth. It is difficult to grow.
DON'T BUY
An enigma. Sure, their managers have grown a small company into one of the largest software companies on the TSX. Doesn't trust them, because their reporting is not transparent. Also, this is a heavy growth by acquisition story, which itself is fine, but we are in a time of rising interest rates that will weigh on this stock.
HOLD
It’s had a crazy ride. Getting sold off with the entire sector. As a holding, it looks as though it’s going higher. Hard not to see upside in the chart, it’s powerful. Unless you did it for a trade, no reason to sell it.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 21/18, Down 2%) It is one of the leadership names in the TSX but he is watching it closely for signs of a reset. You could reduce your exposure on this one. It has lost its leadership.
DON'T BUY

Here is a company that has gone around buying up other software companies. Now we are late in the investment cycle. The multiple got to a high level so he would expect consolidation.

HOLD

Tricky name. Widely owned. They have to continuously do deals to show good return on invested capital and they might make a mistake. That is his fear on this stock.

PAST TOP PICK

(Past Top Pick Sept.18, 2017, Up39%) They will consolidate for a while. They've come off lately, but have performed well this year. Their challenge is that as they acquire software companies to grow, so they have to either buy bigger or more companies to maintain their pace of growth.

DON'T BUY

Net income has been flat for three years. To move the needle, they have to make a lot of or bigger acquisitions. Historically, this has done well, but today it's expensive. Management is very arrogant--it won't do a conference call with investors. He doesn't like that; communicating with investors is fundamental. No clear strategy; it's a hodge-podge of small companies.
