This summary was created by AI, based on 3 opinions in the last 12 months.

Methanex Corp (MX-T) is currently experiencing a mixed but generally positive outlook among experts. One analyst highlights strong performance indicators, such as RSI, and suggests that the ongoing geopolitical tensions, particularly related to the US-Iran situation, favor the fertilizers and chemicals sector, predicting continued rally in Methanex's stock. Another perspective acknowledges a recent breakout followed by a slight pullback, noting that the stock is resting on historical support levels, which could signal further upward movement if it breaks through certain price points. However, there is a cautious tone as one expert discusses a potential 32% drop in EPS year-over-year and a 5% decline in revenue forecasts, advising investors to wait for clearer signs of recovery and confirming upward trends. Overall, while there is potential for price appreciation and a decent dividend yield, the stock's current positioning below key moving averages suggests a careful watch is warranted before making significant investment moves.

WATCH
One of the biggest methanol producers globally. Methanol prices have been increasing so stock has had a run but is now saying increase production in China. Would be cautious near term to see if incremental supply would offset the Chinese increase. Longer term he does like it.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Methanol prices are starting to come off the spot market.
DON'T BUY
$18.50 is the 50-day moving average but the momentum has fallen out of it. Looking for a market pullback of about 10%, which might affect this stock.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Always a one trick pony with methanol but as the economy recovers, demand for industrial chemicals will recover.
BUY
With the energy complex doing very well, methanol pricing has been looking a lot better. Assets in South America makes it low cost producer.
BUY
Generates strong return on capital, shareholder friendly and focused on their particular niche. This makes it an attractive business from a bottom up point of view but methanol production is a cyclical product. You want to pick your timing very carefully. If you have a longer-term outlook such as 3 years, it could be attractive. Dividend of 3.46%.
BUY
Methanol producer. Stock has been hit because industrial production is way down. Now the prices have started to climb. If you believe there will be a recovery in industrial production globally, this should continue to climb. Can be volatile so if you make some money, sell it and move into something else
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) They still have to deal with declining margins in their businesses overseas.
DON'T BUY
It’s a play on Methanol prices. It has fallen off a cliff and is now starting to recover. Very leveraged.
TOP PICK
7% dividend, company says is sustainable. Methenol prices have gone down. We will see use of Methenol increase. Should see earnings explode. Nobody cares about the loss because we are at the bottom of the cycle.
BUY
World's biggest privately owned methanol manufacturer. One use for methanol is construction, which is not doing too well. However, with lower gas prices in North America, and staying low in South America and Trinidad they have a good cost position. Great balance sheet. Watch the commodity trends in methanol prices. 8% yield is reasonably safe.
WEAK BUY
World’s biggest supplier of methanol, a feedstock chemical for a lot of different processes, which is not highly in demand right now. On the other hand, it is primarily made from natural gas, which is also very cheap. Whatever they are losing on the price of methanol they are gaining on the price of gas. Thinks the dividend is sustainable.
DON'T BUY
Numbers were not good. Ethanol is economically sensitive. No balance sheet issues but it is sensitive to oil prices.
DON'T BUY
Fundamentals are not great. Market is looking for quality and needs good profitability, predictable earnings, sustainability of dividends and a good balance sheet. Do not get fooled by dividends or valuation.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 2/07. Down 50%.) Excellent, well-managed company. Strong franchise and generating lots of free cash flow. The challenge: it is in the commodities business. Very strong/sustainable dividend. Still a Buy.
