TSE:CTC
It has not picked up to the same extent as HD-N. We are dealing with a general consumer related store whereas HD-N has benefited from the home renovation space because at home what else are you going to do with your day when shut in but renovate. As stores start to re-open again and assuming there are no setbacks, then he feels CTC-T stock will continue to appreciate. It is a solid company and much more diversified than it was ten years ago.
Iconic Canadian brand but operating in a very competitive space. Most products are AMZN-Q'able. They have the credit card business which brings in 25% of their earnings but it is essentially sub-prime lending. Loan losses are skyrocketing at a time when bankrupsies are skyrocketing. It is not timely from this perspective. They have been buying back stock but he thinks the runway for that is getting pretty short.
Great Canadian company.
Very cheap valuation on the stock price.
~4% dividend yield is strong.
Beat guidance last quarter.
Economic headwinds could weigh on the company.
