The Canadian Tire Corporation Ltd. (CTC.A) is viewed as a solid but unexciting investment by several experts. While the company has shown notable growth, particularly with a recent 38% year-over-year increase in earnings per share, concerns about consumer spending and overall economic health persist, particularly given its discretionary nature. Analysts suggest that although CTC.A is undergoing a transformation showing positive results, it might be at its peak price target range, making it a good time to consider profit-taking. There is a cautious outlook on the stock due to its reliance on consumer sentiment, with comparisons drawn to competitors like DOL, which show more defensive characteristics in their profiles. It remains well-covered in the market, and while the dividend yield is solid, some analysts caution against initiating new positions in discretionary stocks like Canadian Tire amidst economic uncertainties.

DOL, DOL

HOLD

Probably got a little ahead of itself and is now showing some weakness, but a good stock.

PAST TOP PICK

Canadian Tire has gone down. He still likes it and continues to hold it .

TOP PICK

He likes Canadian Tire and he is sticking with it. It has lots of upside. He has held this stock since the inception of the funds and has recommended it for years. He is still buying during weaknesses.

HOLD

Canadian Tire has come off because of their earnings forecast. There are concerns about what is going to happen to the home building part of their business. Canadian Tire retail accounts for two-thirds of the profits. Reasonable value. Long term prospects are good, but could tread water until they start to show growth.

HOLD

They don't own (they are more focused on resources, rather then retail). It's not a bad time to own, but he would have to check the evaluations compared to other retailers before buying.

TRADE

Canadian Tire has good numbers. The sales are up 11%. The dividends have increased. It is a stable company. He believes it is worth what it is.

WATCH

Watching it, but not buying yet. Has an order to buy at $62

BUY

One of your great blue chips. You not have to fear competition from the big box stores. Probably worth $10/15 from here.

BUY

Tremendously impressed with the management. Expect it will be $80 a little while from now.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 13/05. Up 11%.) Every market cycle, at about this time, it breaks out and heads for its usual long-term peak of about 2.5 X book. Phenomenal management. Still a Buy.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Has a model price of around $78. Try to pick it up on weakness.

HOLD

A fantastic company. Excellent management. At another high and he hates buying stocks that are at their high. Probably a little late to be buying it.

DON'T BUY

Has been in a strong up trend for the last 5 years. This is late in the cycle for the consumer cycle and if the market is going to be weak into 2006/2007, he would be cautious about consumer stocks. The momentum is failing and he wouldn't be chasing this stock.

TOP PICK

Usally peaks at about 2.5 X book and has done so with great regularity in the past 25 years. This would place the stock at about $75/78. Typically a late bloomer. His fair market value is well over $120, so lots of upside. Doesn't expect it to get near that. If it got to $75/78 he would be delighted.

TOP PICK

Doing a great job of reformatting their stores in what they call a 20/20 concept which is basically getting more square footage. Same store sales of 3% to 4%. Has done a good job in the financial services area. Thinks they can grow earnings 12/15% over the next 5 years.
