Russel Metals (RUS-T) has garnered attention from various experts due to its strong positioning in the steel distribution market across both the U.S. and Canada. The company is perceived as somewhat insulated from steel tariffs thanks to its significant U.S. operations and recent acquisitions aimed at bolstering these capabilities. Analysts note the ongoing trends in hard asset investment and Canadian infrastructure growth as favorable for the company. Financially, Russel Metals offers a reasonable dividend yield over 4% and a solid balance sheet, although there are concerns regarding potential tariff impacts and economic sensitivity. The stock has shown a positive trajectory, with various experts suggesting strategic entry points for investment based on technical chart analysis and overall market conditions.

Valuation

Fair Value

Nucor, NUE

HOLD

Just made a small acquisition. Targets on the stock are around $34. Very astute operator.

BUY

The last steel company in Canada that could be acquired. Very high dividend yield. Earnings are going up. Very strong possibility they could be taken out.

BUY

Spectacular management. Very fast inventory turnaround. "Would have been an income trust before that party ended."

BUY

Dividend yield of 6% is incredibly attractive. Reported numbers that were a little weak due to the weakness in oil/gas exploration. Excellent management.

COMMENT

5.5% dividend. There are increasing rumours on a takeover and he could see $40 on this. Without the takeover, $34-$35 would be his target. Would take some profit at $35.

BUY

One of the best yielding stocks on the TSX, yields around 5% or better. The current pull back is an opportunity.

SELL

In the steel distribution business. It has been a great period to be in the steel fabricating business. Good yield. Getting closer to the end and if you own, it might be wise to take some profits and keep a core position.

PARTIAL BUY

Splendid dividend growth. A fine hold. You could buy a small bit at a time.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 3/06. Up 17.4%.) The most shareholder friendly of all companies he follows. Consistently increases their dividends. Dividend of 5% plus. Low PE. Undervalued.

HOLD

Would buy it back at the right price. Had a big run recently. Pretty good dividend.

HOLD

Steel fabrication/warehousing. Very nice dividend. In the near-term, it looks OK.

BUY

His model price is $43, but he would revise this down to $37.70. Cheap. Not big enough to qualify for his portfolio, but there is value there.

BUY

Cheap at 10 X earnings. 5.8 % yield. Feels there's a 50% chance that it will be taken over in the next 12 months. No net debt. $35 on a takeover.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 3/06. No change.) Nice dividend yield of about 5.75%. Very well run company. Still prices are turning around. Still likes.

HOLD

This has been a fantastic stock. The 200-day moving average has followed the stock very well. Is now starting to flatten out. It could be subject to profit taking. Use $25 as your stop loss level.
