TOP PICK

Treat as a HOLD, not as a BUY. Takeover scuttlebut seems to have dried up. Likes the company and their assets and wouldn't count the aspect of a takeover as being finished. Pays a very nice dividend. Suffered the last few years because of WalMart and feels that WalMart may be topping out in Canada. Making some good changes.

DON'T BUY

Asset value is higher than the stock price. It could be a long wait for any offer to take it over and might be lower than the present price. Too many questions with this stock.

WEAK BUY

Tough 4th quarter for them, but their valuation is around 11 X which is not expensive. Growth has been moderate. There is a potential for a take-out.

HOLD

If you own, consider switching some of it to their convertible debentures. Feels the company remains a creeping takeover.

DON'T BUY

Credit sided does OK, but the HBC and Zellers stores are not profitable. No reason to hold this one.

HOLD

Always want a minimum of 50% on the upside, so this stock no longer matches their "BUY" criteria. The big question is "will somone come in and scoop up the company". Has about $500 million in real estate.

SELL

Wouldn't expect much from the Christmas season. Got a little fed up on how fast a takeover could take, so reducing his holdings.

BUY

Trading at half of book value, but has even been down to $10 this year. Doesn't see a lot of downside.

DON'T BUY

Had a spike in the last week, but not aware of any news on this. Prefers their convertible debentures. Retail side may turn out a little better than anticipated.

TRADE

A great value stock as it trades at a significant discount to its NAV. Not performing well as a growth.

DON'T BUY

Speculation on a takeover is reflected in the stock price.

HOLD

Retail side is struggling. Real estate assets carried on the books is probably less than the true value. Has a suspicion that WalMart has peaked. If a takeover, price will be between current price and $18. If not, stock will drop back.

DON'T BUY

Doesn't think it will be taken over. Has tough competition from Wal Mart and Zellers hasn't done as well as had been hoped. Expects it to be dead money for a year.

BUY

Dirt cheap. Nominal book value is $30 or higher. There are rumors of Target trying to get it at $16.50. This would be a steal, so expect another offer would come in.

DON'T BUY

Rumors of a Target takeover and purchase of shares by Zucher of the US have been pushing the price up. Doesn't feel a takeover by Target is a reasonable bet. If you own, take some profits.
