Westshore Terminals Inc. (WTE-T) faces challenges amid significant uncertainty in the transport sector, mainly due to the proposed rail merger in the United States, which could impact shipping volumes. Analysts express concerns that volumes might be diverted to competing ports, which could directly affect Westshore's business activities. Despite this uncertainty, there is an overall sense of cautious optimism, with experts suggesting that the company will likely withstand these challenges in the long run. The stock has been fluctuating within a range, indicative of market apprehension and a potential wait-and-see strategy among investors. With a decent dividend yield providing some returns, it may still attract long-term investors while we monitor developments in its operational environment.

WEAK BUY
They have negotiated a longer-term contract so prices going through terminal are set now. Reasonable yield. The unit value has really gone up in price. He is keeping his eye on it.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Apr 6/09, Up 93%) It’s getting closer to the pinch point. It can’t get any bigger – It’s just the terminal.
BUY
A processor for all the coal that gets shipped out to Asia. Not overly aggressive on the distributions. Will re-evaluate his holdings and look at it when it reaches $18.
TRADE
It’s a one-trick pony – coal. A competitive port opening up just up the coast. It has to convert to a corporation. Doesn’t believe their tax pool is as extensive as asset-holding trusts.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Has moved a little higher than what he expected, $15.50. Like well managed trusts with good dividends they have all been moving as people look for yield. Outlook for the bond market is not great. He would prefer it at around $15.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Apr 6/09, Up 93.10%)
RISKY
Likes it and has owned it. The stock just ran up. The upside from now gets watered down from any upside in coal prices because of contracts with Teck. There was speculation of privatization or takeover. It is a great opportunity for someone to get into a predictable income business.
WEAK BUY
Coal Terminal, sales offshore of coal has been good, recently improved. Has a virtual monopoly. Well managed company. Needs to look at Income Trust conversion questions.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Coal loading facility. In news because they renegotiated a contract with Teck. WTE will now get a lower rate from Teck but will get more volume. No debt, buy on a pull back. $15.10-15.20
BUY
Big beneficiary of global market for coal. They are going to be able to grow their cash flow over the next couple of years.
BUY
Good quality infrastructure play. Should gut the distribution 30-40% during conversion.
DON'T BUY
It is a core holding. It will go into a corporate form in a year. As long as bonds are not paying you an income, investors will come into the market every day and this has a high yield. Would buy more at $12
TOP PICK
Likes metallurgical coal, which is increasing in pricing because of demand from Chinese steel companies. A more stable way to play this trend because they own one of the largest coal loading terminals in North America. Every time coal gets shipped they earn a fee and they have provisions in their contract they earn upside in pricing goes higher. About 8% yield.
BUY
At the moment they are in the right place at the right time. Oscillations in this stock are directly related to shipping of coal, particularly metallurgical coal. If you have an outlook longer than 2 years, this would be relatively safe.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Coal terminal in BC. Expects there will be more demand for coal from Asia.
