Barry Schwartz Magna Int'l. (A) MG-T DON'T BUY Mar 03, 2025

Solid company. Thinks 2025 will be positive for the consumer and auto demand, and the stock's not reflecting this. If you're a long-term player, and you still like the fundamentals, keep holding.

Not an unreasonable time to sell, given the economic sensitivity of the name. Stock's come up a bit recently. Consider something like TD rather than BNS.

Don't yet know how things are going to shake out. Rhetoric is at an all-time high. Short term, it's impacting our economy because the US is our largest trading partner. Reality is that there's a lot of value-added auto manufacturing in both Canada and US; the 2 countries are inextricably linked. Tariffs will be punitive for both Canada and the US.

Hope is not an investment strategy, but we have to hope that rational heads can prevail so that there continues to be a steady flow of goods across our borders.

The names on this list are plenty. Start with the industrials, for instance. He's a big fan of BBD.B, but they make everything here in Canada.

An aerospace name like CAE, the rails, auto components like LNR and MG.

It has been lowering guidelines and the sector is not great with auto parts companies being impacted by tariffs. He likes Linamar better. It is cheaper and more diversified with an industrial side, and would be less impacted by tariffs.

Trades on the TSX, and has major global operations. But impacted so much by what happens with trade.

Most of the drop has to do with the tariff situation. Recent numbers were really good, great balance sheet, amazing footprint, global manufacturing powerhouse. Nice dividend.

Not the right time. Big exposure to tariffs. Business is capital intensive and highly competitive. Not a compounder. News on tariffs is so volatile and unpredictable.

His preference in the space. Very well integrated into the major auto companies, as they can't live without Magna at all. Profitable, makes money every year. Buy it when things look awful.
