Canadian Tire Corporation Ltd. (CTC.A) has garnered mixed reviews from experts, reflecting a spectrum of opinions on its current performance and future prospects. The general sentiment indicates that while the company is solid and has demonstrated impressive growth in recent earnings, with a 38% YOY EPS increase and improved momentum, there is caution regarding the overall consumer spending landscape in Canada. With approximately 60% of its business being discretionary, experts are wary of economic challenges that may impact consumer confidence and spending patterns. The stock appears to be trading at fair value, and while some analysts recommend holding, others suggest taking profits as it approaches resistance levels. Long-term prospects remain positive, especially with ongoing efficiency improvements, despite short-term volatility concerns.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

It has come down a bit and so might be a buy. They have done a tremendous job growing the business over the years in the face of intense competition. Management does not see a slowdown. They made an acquisition of a fashion business but there are some synergies. It is not expensive but you need to be aware of some of the risks.

DON'T BUY

China impacts? A neutral valuation for him. Trades at 14 times earnings. Lots of room to improve the yield going forward. Just not compelling right now. Issues with China may result in slightly higher prices. (Analysts’ price target is $170.31)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 17/18, Down 8%) The HellyHansen acquisition was thought too expensive by the street. Despite their past history of incorporating brands well, he is not concerned it has taken a while to get going. He will continue to hold it.

DON'T BUY

She doesn't buy Canadian retail, because the Canadian consumer isn't strong now. Also, online commerce is competing more.

DON'T BUY

One of the better retailers in Canada. Big shift has come in. Everyone's playing catch up to Amazon and online sales. A great company, but the world changed around them. Not looking for bricks and mortar retail players on his team. A challenge for growth.

TOP PICK

Not just retail, but they also have financial services and real estate. Well-managed and a good acquirer of assets like Mark's Work Warehouse with fine execution. This has underperformed the last six months due to weather, but they did buy a sportswear company for $1.1 billion. They'll do well with it. CT has increased its dividend.

PARTIAL BUY

Long term hold? Yes, 5-10 years, but be careful playing a consumer stock late in the cycle. He thinks we have 1-2 years before a recession. Watch the allocation in your portfolio.

DON'T BUY

They've shifted well from hard retailer to online, but all retail is very tough. He wants to see online growth here. It's in an uber-competitive space, especially online. He sees better retail stocks elsewhere, like Amazon.

BUY

The Amazon effect CTC reports on Thursday. Wait till then. As for Amazon, CTC has been quite resilient. Consumers need to touch items like cars and BBQ's and can't buy them online. CTC has done a good job of fusing together Mark's Work Warehouse and Sportchek. A terrific name.

HOLD

This is one of the Canadian retailers that has done fairly well. Everybody is impacted by AMZN-Q but CTC-T less so. The difficulty is that that he does not see growth beyond 2-3%. He needs 10%. He would not say to sell it if you are into it.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 20/18, Down 17%) There was concern from competition from Amazon. He sold it in September. It looks attractive today, but is not yet a buy just yet.

DON'T BUY

Q4 doesn't look good for them, given the benign weather in Canada (tires and snow-removal and winter gear are big sellers for them). That said, he epxects a dividend increase as CTC continues to appease investors. This will muddle along.

WATCH

It performs well in November and December and not in January. It will set up now for a good buying opportunity at the end of January into the end of April. We are at a base of support as we come into a second period of seasonal support.

HOLD

Well-managed. It's likely impacted by Amazon (not cars). This is down because the entire market is. Valuation is merely okay, not cheap. Don't panic. This won't drop more. But other stocks have better upside this year than CTC.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 05/18, Down 14%) He thinks it is being impacted by Amazon. Their website relies on purchases from the local store -- a big disadvantage. He sees further competition coming in. It trades below a key moving average, which is cautionary.
