HOLD
Canadian retailer and their well being is tied to the economy. Although the economy has come back quite a bit, there has been a downshift in spending. Have staying power and good real estate holdings. If you have better names in the retail section, this could be a source of cash if you own.
WEAK BUY
Doesn’t like the retail area at this time. Has a concern about slowing. He has always shopped here. Are forever bringing in new products.
BUY
General view is that dual class views are a negative (e.g. Magna). The family built a great company. It is a very small negative. Very positive on Canadian retail. But it is becoming more competitive. Thinks highly of them as a company.
HOLD
Less downside risk. Not the risk in the financial market. It’s cheap because the growth is lower.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Oct 5/07, Down 40%)Used to hold up well in bad economic times because if you couldn’t buy a new item, you would buy the tools to maintain it. Let it come back a little bit more before coming back in. Getting really cheap.
COMMENT
One of the best, if not the best Canadian retailers but it is not a good time to be a retailer. Feels the stock will continue to be vulnerable for a while. If you're a long-term investor, Hold but if you are a short-term investor, consider selling.
HOLD
Has been knocked down but has a history of supporting strong numbers in weak economic times. Marks Work Warehouse is doing reasonable well and expanding into women’s clothing. Attracting more women into their stores.
WEAK BUY
The premier Canadian general merchandise retailer. Had economic and weather headwinds in eastern Canada. At current valuations, it's an OK buy. No catalyst in the near term to move it higher.
COMMENT
Canada's premier retailer. Stock fell off the cliff a few months ago because it's biggest markets are Ontario and Quebec and there is weakness in their economies. In the near-term, they are going to have some issues, but in the long-term, it's the best retailer to own in Canada.
WEAK BUY
Has had trouble squaring away revenues, profitability, inventory, etc. There is a lot of competition. Would consider going in at this time but would like to see what the next quarter brings.
BUY
Will continue building stores. The dollar is still out there and the population is growing. This is one of his “Buy and Hold” for ever.
HOLD
Stores within 15 minutes of 70% of the population. A darling of the Canadian retail industry. Not subject to a takeover because it's family owned.
BUY
2nd quarter results were terrific. 3rd quarter results will be flat year-over-year due to the expansion of some of their stores and they expect a very strong 4th quarter.
BUY
A niche company. A fabulous company that has no equal.
WAIT
Very well run. Will be subject to a great deal of competition. The other concern is the health of the consumer, especially in Ontario and Quebec.
