(A Top Pick Oct 26/18, Down 14%) Sold most of it. At the time, it was cheap compared to peers and defensive. He believed that their multiple would increase if they sold off their construction business. However, they had higher costs and softer activity. The stock didn't respond the way he wanted to, and there is problems with accelerated work reduction.

(A Top Pick Aug 14/18, Down 14%) He sold out of it at $31.50. This stock has not gone anywhere for several years. They have not signed new contracts or acquiring, so he had enough and exited.

Engineering and construction company. For a couple of years it was mainly consulting, now more doing construction. It could be a mess if not executed well. A show me stock. Cyclical. He would stay clear of it.

WSP Global is pretty much the gold standard. They are pretty much 100% consulting, whereas STN-T and SNC-T are not. He has shied away from the whole sector. The problem is the engineering and construction business, which he has never liked. Margins are razor thin. STN-T wants to get away from E&C. He would buy WSP-T on a correction. STN-T might be a buy at some other point. SNC-T he stays way from and has done so for many years.

They almost meet his criteria. They are aggressive at acquiring other engineering firms. They have a good history of increasing earnings per share. It has traded sideways for years. They are a good company

(A Top Pick Apr 18/18, Up 5%) He liked the infrastructure expenditure outlook and their acquisition in construction a year prior. That acquisition has now been sold. He hopes governments will spend again in the space. He will continue to hold.

(A Top Pick Jan 29/18, Down 9%) They were early on this pick. One of the leaders in architecture in water systems. The dividend is growing. Still buying more. Trading at 12 or 13 times 2021 earnings.

Of the E&C companies, this is the most US-centric. If you like the US economy in particular, you'd pick this one, though the stock has gone sideways since its run-up. Stantec is the most expensive, SNC is the cheapest, and Aecon is also cheap.

ARE-T, WSP-T or SNC-T? He owns SNC-T, which has had its issues alongside the Canadian-Saudi Arabia situation. Fundamentally the company performs well. He owns STN-T. He was expecting this space to see better investment following the Canadian government plans to add to infrastructure. He has grown cold to the space as a whole.

(A Top Pick Jan 26/18, Down 9%) Just exited construction business, pulling down this stock. Trading at 14x, still cheap vs. peers, and expects strong growth this year. Be patient. It'll work out.

He owns SNC instead (better value). If you like the US economy, then you can own STN. Decent growth, well-managed and nothing wrong with it. Just that SNC is cheaper.

(A Top Pick Jan 25/18, Down 15%) Their construction made them miss their earnings by 12%. They are exiting that business. Core consulting is increasing. Trading at 14 times. Very cheap.

They have operations in US and Canada. They were growing good in US with the housing market. They bought a company in the US with a construction division, which comes with lower margins. It is a well managed company and with the infrastructure spending in both US and Canada, he would continue to hold it.

They just sold their construction business, which is a catalyst. Their contruction obscured their consulting business which will shine thought now. Got a good balance sheet so they can contine to buy. 17% EPS growth. It's trading below its peers. An infrastructure play, so even in a late cycle they can still attract capital. (1.65% dividend yield; no price target given)
