Finning International (FTT-T) has garnered mixed reviews from experts, highlighting both its strengths and concerns in the current market landscape. The company is recognized as a distributor of Caterpillar products, making it a stable stock choice with potential as a HALO company. However, uncertainty in Canada surrounding infrastructure and energy has raised some red flags. While some analysts note the stock's remarkable ascent from $45 to current levels, they caution that it has surpassed its fair market value, suggesting careful monitoring is needed, especially if the stock fails to maintain support at $78. Despite the trend of earnings forecasts appearing flat, the equipment industry is generally seen as resilient to inflation, and there is optimism for growth driven by mining and global expansion over the next few years, particularly in industrials.

WEAK BUY
Great brand name. Very strong company. Has quite a cyclical bias to it. Performance is going to be a function of what use the in the economy. Prefers others.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Well-run. Had a nice run, but now looking at less than 10% growth. Would consider at$25/26.
PAST TOP PICK
(A top pick Dec 9/03. Up 3%.) Didn't do as well as they had hoped. Had some foreign exchange problems, didn't sell as much equipment as they would've liked. Expect they will grow based on metal prices, pipeline development, Olympics.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Earnings reported were a little disappointing. Very exposed to a strong Canadian dollar. An extremely good company.
DON'T BUY
Chart indicates a negative. Has two tops and is beginning to turn down. Has sell signals on it.
HOLD
A good name to hold. Hopefully there will be some upside.
DON'T BUY
Likes the machinery stocks in general. It looks like the earnings momentum has slowed in this stock and the estimates are not rising as quickly as they where in the past.
BUY
A really well run the company. Good price.
BUY
Big growth in Alberta oil sands, infrastructure projects in B.C., UK, Paraguay, etc. 1.2% dividend yield.
TOP PICK
Has a lot of things going for it with a lot of global activity. Very reasonable price.
BUY
Down about 10%. Good management. Expects this industry will continue to grow.
DON'T BUY
Has had a nice run, but their model price is where it's selling at now. Fully valued. Well-run company.
TOP PICK
A steady performer. Particularly likes their prospects in South America because of demand for base metals. Should also do well in the Canadian north. Well-managed. Good price.
PAST TOP PICK
(A top pick August 19/03. Up 3.3%.) Very solid company. Still likes.
BUY
Mining and oil sands projects are expanding. Also have distributions in Europe and South America. Very attractive price.
