Finning International (FTT-T) is recognized for its distribution of Caterpillar products and has enjoyed a significant price increase, recently moving past its fair market value. While some experts see potential in this stock, noting the correlation with copper markets and its attractive chart formations, concerns about holding prices above $78 and the potential for a correction loom. The equipment dealer sector is considered favorable due to its resilience against inflation and alignment with global growth, suggesting a buy approach at lower levels. However, with uncertainties in Canadian infrastructure and energy sectors, some analysts advise caution, preferring Caterpillar directly. The current phase in the market cycle could favor industrials, providing a broader bullish sentiment for certain stocks in this category.

Valuation

Caterpillar,CAT

BUY

Major Caterpillar dealer in Canada. Have had some managerial problems, which are easily solved. The agricultural revolution seems to be intact. Stock is been knocked down too low.

TOP PICK

Caterpillar distributor. Sees a very large non-residential capital construction boom in Canada. Caterpillar equipment is ideally suited for this. Besides selling equipment, they do the rentals, repairs and customer support. They are also in South America, a real hot bed of development.

BUY

Looks very interesting. Sees the market for heavy equipment continuing to be very strong globally and in Canada. Reasonably priced.

TOP PICK

Deeply oversold. Fundamentally this is a strong stock. Trading above its level of the first 6 months of 2010, which is a good sign. He is going to try to pick it up at the $20-$21 level.

COMMENT

Finning (FTT-T) or Toromont (TIH-T) for long-term growth and dividends? This area is a little tough right now. Industrial equipment has been pretty beaten up in the last few weeks. He would prefer Finning, which has the oil Sands in Alberta as well as South America where they have a ton of mining. Toromont more focused on Ontario so there is some mining they can focus on but it is more construction, etc.

TOP PICK

Mining equipment manufacturer, where there is a huge demand. Also world’s largest Caterpillar dealer and distributor. They expect to grow 10% a year for the next 10 years but he thinks it could be faster. Raised their dividend.

BUY

A beneficiary of some of the capital projects that are going on globally, particularly in oil and mining sectors. In a good position with all the mining projects that are scaling up. Should continue to do fairly well.

BUY

He owns Caterpillar and it was a better investment but FFT has a better balance sheet. Finning is lagging in reaching its 2007 highs, which Caterpillar is not. A good play, but a play also on resources, so you have to be comfortable with China. A little bit of volatility here. Excellent company and a good place to be.

COMMENT

Toromont (TIH-T) or Finning (FTT-T)? Both companies are heavy equipment. Finning gives more international exposure including Argentina and Chile, which are heavy in mining and heavy users of Caterpillar equipment so he prefers Finning.

BUY

Good growth company with lots of potential demand for their products. This sector has been somewhat beaten up undeservedly.

DON'T BUY

Strongco (SQP-T) or Finning (FTT-T)? Finning has a better long-term track record. Both are good long-term holdings. Heavy equipment is very much driven by economic cycles but wouldn't be too excited at this time.

DON'T BUY

Sold his holdings a few months ago because he felt it had been treading water for a long time. Had thought there were real catalysts for growth, which just didn’t materialize, and the company just didn't perform.

SELL

He just sold it. The order backlog is not improving and the repair and rental business is not making up for it. Doesn’t see earnings increasing over next few years.

DON'T BUY

Trending between 50-day and 200-day moving averages. Not considered a high-growth company. Prefers companies with a unique service or dominant position in the marketplace.

BUY

Have had a disappointing year. Customers seem to be deferring repairs and rentals. Should have a big upside with demand for growth in commodities. Oil sands will continue to grow and needs the equipment. Copper mining in Chile is on fire. Excellent free cash flow.
