TOP PICK
A defensive play. Great assets. Globally diversified. Dividend of about 2%. Over the last 6 years, their dividend almost doubled.
BUY
Likes it for a long term basis. He holds it and if it weakens off, he buys. A core stock. Good management.
TOP PICK
Financial services has been a good place to hide. If there is a recession in 2006, you'll want to own stocks like this. Very solid, well managed group.
COMMENT
Owns Power Financial (PWF-T) instead as he feels it is a cleaner, more purer play on Great West Life (GWO-T) and Investors Group (IGM-T). Likes the insurance and mutual fund sectors.
HOLD
Has done very well over the last few years. Great operator. Great asset.
BUY
Pays a nice dividend. A pretty good core holding.
BUY
Likes both Power Financial (PWF-T) and Power Corp (POW.SV-T), but Power Financial is slightly better value and potential than Power Corp.
DON'T BUY
Essentially a holding company and he always looks at these at a discount to value. It has been as high as 15% but is now around 3%. Would just as soon play the underlying security.
BUY
Has a better mix of assets than Power Financial (PWF-T). Probably there's a better discount to book value built into it also.
BUY
In spite of the threat of higher interest, the financial sector is still good to be in. Likes the outlook for CI Funds (CIX-T) and AGF (AGF.NV-T). This is a good way to play the whole investors group thing.
TOP PICK
The kind of a stock you can put in your portfolio and leave. This puts you as close to the Desmerais family as you can get and they are very savvy investors. Great subsiduaries such as Great West Life (GWO-T) and Investors Group (IGM-T).
BUY
All the Power group has done well, but out of Power Financial, Power Corp, Investors Group and Great West Life, they prefer Investors Group which has the best outlook. Great West has done really well. Wouldn't object to owning any of these, but they trade at a discount so you don't get the full benefit. Likes the European exposure in Power Corp.
BUY
The ownership of Investors Group and Great West Life are both significant in terms of capital appreciation of the stock going forward. Investors Group has not had that good a time of it. Thinks there will be some improvement. Compellingly cheap. A low risk way to play 2 financial services.
BUY
Has backed off a little and Power Financial has performed a little better. Likes both these companies. The growth is more attractive than in some of the banks. Not much risk.
BUY
Very smart management. Prefers Power Financial because the dividend is higher.
