Signal	Opinion	Expert
TOP PICK	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) December 4, 2018 A stable business, the largest convenience store operating in North American, with further outlets in Europe. Their strategy is to price sharply on oil to draw traffic, then lure those customers to buy items like soft drinks and cigarettes where the gross margin is 3-5x higher than gas. Boasts good organic growth with a history of purchases--more to come in Asia which should catapult them past 7-11.

PAST TOP PICK	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) November 26, 2018 (A Top Pick Oct 13/17, Up 10%) He still likes this. This is the type of company that you would expect a good rate of return annually. They did a great job of reinventing the brand with Circle K. This is their global brand now. This is a smooth, steady, reliable company. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	(A Top Pick Oct 13/17, Up 10%) He still likes this.

PAST TOP PICK	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) November 6, 2018 (A Top Pick Apr 23/18, Up 20%) Still adding to it. A solid, well-run company. They keep tucking in acquisitions and they methodically pay down their debt. They're adding charging stations in some of their location, so they are forward-thinking. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	(A Top Pick Apr 23/18, Up 20%) Still adding to it.

TOP PICK	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) November 1, 2018 There has been a consolidation. It will be choppy for a while. Managers should be looking to add exposure to staples and this is a top one. This one would not go down as much if the TSX were to go down.

TOP PICK	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) October 29, 2018 Down to 14x earnings in this correction. A safe growth stock. Easy growth with many takeover targets in Europe and a few in the U.S. They're good at acquire. You won't get much yield, but he targets the stock in the low-$70's.

The last couple or earnings they reported were very strong. It is not trading at an expensive multiple. They have rebranded all their stations in the US. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	(A top pick May 11/18, up 15%). This name got pounded in the spring but was unwarranted.

TOP PICK	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) October 17, 2018 Eventually, their gas stations will gravitate to electric cars. They've done a number of acquisitions, yet brought their debt back down in line. They did a few purchases at once, then the market got bored and went elsewhere. They paid off $600 million in debt in the last quarter plus a moderate growth rate. The balance sheet is loose, not as tight as he usually expects from a company, but ATD is the exception to this rule, meaning it's still worth buying.

BUY	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) October 1, 2018 A stock that looks expensive, but always delivers. They own convenience stores globally. They are very good at what they do. Gas companies are happy to sell to ATD'B, because ATD'B increases their margins. They succeed in the U.S. where many Canadian companies have failed. This will continue to be a class act. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	A stock that looks expensive, but always delivers. They own convenience stores globally. They are very good at what they do.

TOP PICK	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) September 27, 2018 Has been a flatliner. Hasn’t done much for a while. Quarters have been spotty. Last quarter they came with an incredible same store sells (7%). She hopes that the rebranding is going to make them have a better string going forward.

WATCH	Alimentation Couche-Tard (B)(ATD.B-T) September 25, 2018 This is a Canadian company. It has Canadian exposure, but the majority of its locations are in the USA, with some additional locations in Europe. Fuel margins are currently high and have been expanding in the US. The stock hasn’t done much for a while. Some people are worried that electric vehicles will be bad for them, but the percentage of vehicles that are electric is still tiny. He doesn’t own the stock now but is looking at it. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	This is a Canadian company.
