Magna International (MG-T) has faced challenges since its heavy investment in electric vehicles in 2021, largely due to unmet demand and the negative effects of tariffs. However, the company has taken significant steps to address these issues, especially in its partnerships with Chinese OEMs, leading to a recovery in market share within innovative fields like smart door handles and driverless technology. Recently, the company reported a strong quarterly performance that exceeded market expectations, highlighting its resilience amid headwinds from CUSMA and ongoing complexities in auto supply chains. The automotive sector, which has been under pressure from tariffs, is showing renewed vigor as investors begin to return, signaling a potential recovery for stocks in this space.

DON'T BUY
A very well managed company. Unfortunately, the timing is not great as the car industry is not doing well.
SELL
The auto parts manufacturers, particularly in Canada, are going to have a very difficult time with what is happening to the North American auto industry. General Motors and Ford are going to get costs under their system and their suppliers will be the first place they look.
DON'T BUY
There are questions about their operations as well as the industry they are in as well as the sustainability of the earnings level.
BUY
This one looks cheap to him.
DON'T BUY
Having major problems. Had a high in 2004 and ever since it has been down and up and down and up with the downs and ups being lower than their previous ones.
BUY
A big supplier to the big three. However, it's getting a bigger share of the smaller number of cars being sold. It's also starting to make complete cars in Europe. Coming out of the end of this tunnel, it's going to be in a much stronger position.
DON'T BUY
Doesn't like the industry that they are involved with. There's a real issue in the over capacity in the car industry.
SELL
You have to be very careful of industries that can't rally in a bull market. A very well run company, but if you're selling into a difficult market, it's difficult to see how you make money.
DON'T BUY
The odds of a General Motors (GM-N) or Ford (F-N) going bankrupt kind of increase day by day. If they do a deal in order to shed their union liabilities, a side affect will be that a company like Magna will get stiffed on their accounts receivable. Of course they'll still build cars and will need parts.
TOP PICK
Top Short Had a tremendous move, but back in the middle of 2004, it started to top out and has had nothing but problems ever since. It could have another little rally and that would be your opportunity to sell it if you own.
DON'T BUY
There's massive overcapacity in this industry. 60% of their contracts are with Ford (F-N) and General Motors (GM-N).
TOP PICK
Top Short Either shorting or buying a PUT. Had a top formation. There are 2 mountains ('02 and '04) and it couldn't get above its previous high. Had a negative channel and finally had a breakdown from the 200 day moving average.
WEAK BUY
Good dividend for income investors but he doesn't like the price movement over the last year. You would have to look at this as a value name rather than a growth name.
WAIT
Talked to a couple of auto parts manufacturers and they are hurting quite bad. Production cuts by the big 3 will hurt Magna. Inventory levels are high. A superbly run company and an absolute must in a portfolio when it reaches a bootom.
TOP PICK
Although the auto sector has only grown at less than a 2% rate in the '90's, Magna has managed a 17% annual rate. Have a great cash position. Trading at about 9.5 X earnings and 4 X cash flow. Has dropped but looks like it is finding a support level.
