DON'T BUY

A poorly run company. A difficult business and they have never changed their business model and effectively make it work properly. No visibility on earnings at all.

DON'T BUY

Still holds the convertible debentures, but his belief is slowly draining away.

BUY

Undervalued. Have about $500 million in real estate. Management has made some major mistakes in their planning in terms of revenue growth but seem far more realistic now.

DON'T BUY

Haven't owned this stock for a number of years. Has been under a lot of pressure. Heavy competition from Wal-Mart (WMT-N) as well as Loblaws (L-T) which is getting into the soft goods. Have some really good real estate locations.

DON'T BUY

There is speculation that they may be selling some of their real estate assets. Also rumours of a takeover by a US retailer. If nothing happens, it's not worth what it's trading at now because of the disappointing merchandising numbers they have come up with. High risk strategy.

DON'T BUY

Has been in trading range. May have broken out and if the volume picked up at the same time (Ed. It didn't.) there is a chance it could move higher. Not an exciting stock.

DON'T BUY

In a difficult retail environment. Have perpetually missed their numbers. Have never quite put in motion the necessary changes that were needed. No vision. A lot of competition.

DON'T BUY

Very unspectacular. Probably where it is because of the constant rumour of a takeover.

DON'T BUY

Doesn't feel the retail business in Canada, particularily in Ontario, is going to be a very hot sector. Has a hard time competing.

DON'T BUY

Has not been able to buck the trend of same store sales and difficult profitability. Feels the Cdn. economy is going to soften. Consequently the fundamentals are not particularly stellar. There is a renewed view that the US investor, who has been accumulating its stock, is going to buy the rest of the company. Wouldn’t be willing to make that bet.

BUY

Still has some upside in it. As a merchandiser, it's going in the right direction. There will be some misses.

DON'T BUY

Will be unexciting. The whole North American department store sector seems to be unable to gather a lot of traction. The trend seems to be towards big box retailer in the lower end of the market and towards more boutique at the higher end. This also applies to Sears (SCC-T).

BUY

They're working on pumping up the earnings and FMV is $20/22. They hold the debentures because they will participate in any upside, but on the downside they still have a pretty healthy yield which provides quite a bit of defensive strength.

DON'T BUY

Has trouble making money. Terrific assets. Absence of takeover news has pushed the stock down. Retail sales in November was not encouraging.

SELL

At this stage, believes the stock has run out of steam. Running into a lot of overhead resistance and sellers. If you own, time to take a profit.
