Despite the recent downturn in stock price, which has seen a decline of approximately 29-32%, analysts note the company's robust underlying operating performance and durable market position. They argue that the logistics network Descartes has built over the past 20 years is difficult to replicate, suggesting that the company has a significant moat.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
One of the leading companies for supply management. Very solid. As commerce grows and supply chains get more complicated, it will do fine. Long-term holding. Buy on weakness.

DSG-T vs. OTEX-T which to sell to raise cash? DSG-T, if you own it, you would have done very well, but the fair market value is 78% lower than where it is at now. There is a lot of momentum behind it but not a lot of value. OTEX-T is trading right at its fair market value and has not been above that in ten years. He would sell either one if you want a source of cash.

DON'T BUY

Great company. Overvalued. Pandemic and e-commerce have been a boon. Growth both organic and by its acquisition spree. Trades at 71x earnings. His preference is for Open Text, which has a larger market and has grown more quickly. OTEX trades at 14x earnings.

BUY

TOP PICK
They are a leader in global logistics. They help customers assess, real time, what the rates are for shipping. They layer in efficiency that is hard to find. (Analysts’ price target is $57.47)
BUY
He's long owned them. Their business of taking care of all the shipping paperwork (logistics) for a business is spot on. Their long-term return has been fantastic and they have a long way to go still. They benefit from the chaos in trading now (i.e. Trump's tariffs).
BUY
When you have a good company you should not sell it. The growth looks good, the balance sheet is good and the track record is excellent. They are probably setting themselves up to be sold. (Analysts’ price target is $60.00)
BUY
He wishes every stock looked like this, going straight up since 2014. An amazing chart. Maybe you can trade this. You can still get into this, since the momentum remains strong.
BUY
Logistics business. It is software as a service with 90% of revenue is recurring and growing rapidly. Online retail is a new sector for them. It will grow for many years.
DON'T BUY
His model is $22.32 or -60%. Maybe over time the stock price and the earnings come together.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
You just have to buy them and hold if it fits your mandate. Don't fuss about the valuation, as it will always be expensive. Lots of tailwinds. Tech rollup, organic growth, inorganic growth, one of the best CEOs. If it ever sells off 5%, tuck it away.
