Canadian Tire Corporation Ltd. (CTC.A) has garnered mixed reviews from experts over the past several years. While the company is deemed solid and has shown an improved performance with a reported 38% increase in EPS year-over-year, some analysts express cautiousness regarding its valuation, particularly in light of broader economic concerns affecting consumer spending. Several experts favor retailers with more defensive profiles, such as Dollarama (DOL) and North West Company (NWC), citing Canadian Tire's substantial reliance on discretionary spending, which may diminish in a weakening economy. Additionally, the stock appears to be undergoing a transformation, with momentum showing in recent quarterly results, yet analysts advise taking profits and maintaining a wait-and-see approach. Overall, the stock presents a mixed outlook, influenced by its transformation efforts and the cautious sentiment around the Canadian consumer market.

BUY

Good story. Have a good market niche. They have built a superb franchise. May not be as susceptible to a housing slowdown. Good long-term story.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 11/05. Up 25.4%.) Would still buy. Their earnings were absolutely dynamite. Mark's Work Warehouse turned out to be a fabulous acquisition.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Have had a decent quarter because of a pickup in Marks Warehouse and their credit card business. Worried a little bit about the 2nd half because floor space is going to increase by about 57%. He would buy at $62.

BUY

Trading at 15 X forward earnings. They will be some growth. There is a small dividend.

COMMENT

Had more than a double over the past 3 years and the multiple got a little high built on a little bit too much optimism. That is now moderating. Also, a lot of consumer discretionary/merchandising have all been coming under a little pressure.

BUY

Tremendous management and great track record. The only concern would be if there is a turnover of economic activity, consumers could pull back a little bit. Would nibble at this one rather than buying a full position.

DON'T BUY

Has had an uptrend line in place for 3/4 years and had a violation earlier this year. Didn't reach a new high. If you own, make sure is does not drop below its low at the beginning of the year.

HOLD

Have done a terrific job in building a very powerful franchise. Fairly defensive.

BUY

In a terrifically weak market yesterday, this stock opened up 7% because it was a featured pick of a hedge fund in the US. This created a lot of activity by US investors.

DON'T BUY

Has had a couple of issues facing it recently. The latest earnings were a little disappointing and the CEO resigned unexpectedly. Would be a little cautious here.

BUY

A little disappointed to see the changes in the boardroom but it's a company with a lot of bench strength and a lot of talent. Likes this stock. One of the premier retailers in Canada and is a nice counter recessionary name.

TOP PICK

Lost a key executive this week, but they have a very deep bench, and they will manage. Has dropped because money has been pouring out of the boring value stocks. Very attractive entry price.

BUY

On fundamentals, this has been the most successful general merchandiser in Canada.

HOLD

Stock came off after the company reported quarterly earnings and guided lower. Generally, she does not buy non-voting shares. Very good company and well run. Long-term basis, it will continue to do well. Near-term concerns has to deal with competition.

TOP PICK

A very well run company. The price has come off a little bit sell a good entry point. Quality company.
