He likes the mid-cap sector. It is a sweet spot. He would be okay with the holding for a year or less, but eventually the market will price in the expected recession.
Doesn't know the company that well, but if you get a slowdown in interest rate hikes, they should do okay. There is not a housing bubble in Canada like there is in the US. The company is well run and a potential takeover target.
Xceed Mortgage Company is a sub-prime mortgage company. The stock has done well this year. Their dividends have increased. It is a well run company. He paid $9-10.
Great company until rules of the game changed. Trying to reposition themselves into a company that funds itself from deposits and they're trying to get a deposit and banking license. This could take a long time. Fully valued.
