Toyota (TM-N) has taken a measured approach to EV adoption, slowly getting into EV sales strategically and focusing on building hybrid options. The brand name is very strong in North America, and the company is seen as making prudent decisions for the long run. Despite concerns about the impact of technology changes on the industry, Toyota is viewed as a safe investment for a 3-5 year hold.

Business performing well. Has taken a measured approach to EV adoption. Slowly getting into EV sales, but doing so strategically. Excellent cars that last a long time. Brand name very strong in North America.

Made its bed on hybrids vs. EVs. Who knows where the technology will be 10 years from now? Car companies are very capital intensive, so earnings get badly impacted in a slowdown. Not great value. He owns RACE.

Didn't rush to build EVs the way others did, and this will help in the long run. In general, EVs are not selling well, inventories are building up, and infrastructure isn't yet there. Hybrid option has the most mileage longevity, and Toyota seems to be going that route, which is the most prudent approach. Great cars, huge company. Safe for a 3-5 year hold.

TM vs. GM vs. TSLA

Depends on your risk tolerance. He's been looking at GM recently, but hasn't taken any action. Really good recent quarter, will be pressure on financing side of the business. Targets are pretty optimistic. TM is a safer bet for the next year or so; it's a giant company with improving profits, uncertainty on EV strategy is not a short-term game-changer. TSLA is his favourite EV play in the auto-making space. TSLA has already won the EV race, especially as to vertical integration.

We are seeing some green shoots in auto dealers over the last few weeks. TM-N offers both Gas and Electric vehicles. For auto sales you have to understand 2021 – how many layoffs are permanent. He thinks auto sales will continue to decrease over the next two to three years. More auto companies may be more open to mergers in the next 5 years. TM-N is in the top half of auto names. He has owned it before in his dividend portfolio.

Global auto makers are behaving better right now and the Japanese market is improving. He would support an investor buying here.

They make great cars. He does not like the space. With the exception of China, auto sales have been flat for 20 years. There will be some winners but it is too early to speculate on which will be the winners. If you have to be in this sector, it is a good car maker.

Fuel cells for cars Fuel cells have never been economical for carmakers, though they have been around for 30+ years. Toyota and other carmakers are still dabbling with it, because batteries on the e-car side are reaching their limits. Customers demand range. Toyota and the car sector are slumping globally--the economy is slow.

He used to own a lot of Ford and GM. Auto sales have not really increased since the 1990s. Now with the disruptive forces of Uber and Lyft, the space is that much more challenging. Transport is changing. Owning a car is not always part of the assets one owns anymore.

Auto plays are on the backs of consumers, and we're late in the cycle. It's getting tough for people to afford things. Dividend is only 5.9%, and that's average. Likes to see it 6-7-8%, because that creates more compounded income. If he was going to choose, this might not be a bad idea.

BUY

High on his list if he were to buy a car company. Well-capitalized with less debt than most peers. Also has tremendous market share. Trades at 11x earnings pays a 3% dividend. Great for conservative investors. This has outperformed the global car industry for decades.

He thinks the US economy is in a better shape than the Canadian. As you raise interest rates your currency gets stronger so he thinks the US$ will strengthen and US equities will strengthen. You need to be cautious with AUTOs. We are seeing a slowdown. Electrification and hybrid vehicles present uncertainty. He does not know where this company stands with electric vehicles.

They and VOW-GR are vying to be the largest auto manufacturer on the earth. You won't see Chinese cars in North America for some time. You could buy this for a cyclical recovery.
Automotive
DON'T BUY
Toyota

Starting to see a slowdown in car sales, so he wouldn't buy any autos. Instead, own a company growing its free cash flows and has little debt. Carmakers' (and airlines') capex is through the roof and they generate little cash flow. A cyclical industry.

Automotive
BUY
Toyota

It is one of the strongest auto companies in the world. It is a global player. Japan is improving for them. The biggest swing factor for them is the US. The Yen strengthening has been a negative for this company.
