TOP PICK

A global leader. Their EBITDA should bottom in Q1. They started their Chilean plant on time and on budget. They're buying back 5% of its share. It's trading below its historic multiple. It's a play on Brent oil and global growth. A tailwind is Iranian curtailment. You can hold this for a long time. But it's a very cyclical name. (Analysts’ price target is $82.91)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 21/18, Down 1%) It produces a fuel octane booster. He sold out on a gain of 9.5%. It does not rank as high today as sales are increasing but earnings are falling. Not a candidate for purchase today.

BUY

Good buying after the recent sell-off. Put a stop at $71 or at least reduce. Perhaps $10 upside. Likes it.

BUY

Pays 2.5%, 2% dividend. They continue to generate free cash flow to fund projects, yet do share buybacks. Good balance sheet. A fine name. They track Brent Oil. A good proxy on the global economy. A quality name. Hold and buy on weakness.

DON'T BUY

Had a change of heart about commodity companies. They don't have a lot of control over input price of oil. Terrific balance sheet, dividend increases. There are worse places to put your money, but he wants less cyclical choices with more pricing power. Yield is 2.49%.

HOLD

Still looks good. If you own, continue to hold, sees no reason to sell.

BUY

Nice long-term trend and has long, deep support at $80. Sharp increase since January is really stable.

WAIT

It's done well. It's broken above its rising trend since last-2016. Not seasonal now. Look for a base below $80. Wait.

BUY

Chemical stocks are cyclical and now behaving well. He likes it. The commodities group is performing well, benefitting from a stronger economy. MX should trade higher throughout 2018. But with cyclicals, buy them with they look cheap,
and sell when they look pricey.

BUY

Excellent company. The valuation justifies the business. Has access to low-cost gas. Well positioned company. All the fundamentals tick off for him.

COMMENT

The stock has done well. It's the world's largest producer of methanol, used to produce chemicals. She won't buy it here, but if she owned enough, she would probably take some profits here, and buy on a pullback--it has a choppy chart.

DON'T BUY

This is a really good free cash flow generator. There has been speculation of a takeout of Methanex, which is probably one of the reasons the stock price has performed so well lately.

TOP PICK

They are the largest player in terms of methanol production globally. They are diversified globally. It is in the top 4% in valuation. They have a 23% return on equity. A low payout ratio and a bit of a yield. They have been speculated to be a target for CF industries. (Analysts’ target: $82.18).

TOP PICK

This company has had a dramatic turnaround in their business, he says, and they do not own it yet. The payout ratio is only 12% and sales are up 45% on the year. ROE is now 27% from negative a year ago. Earnings are expected to be up 35%. Technical analysts suggest if it can break above $81 it can challenge $100 per share. Yield 2.2%. (Analysts’ price target is $81.51 )
