Consumables for labs. Green energy and pharmaceuticals creating all sorts of demand. Last quarter had 17% organic growth, pretty impressive. Guiding to 5-6% organic growth going forward. Underutilized balance sheet could be flexed for acquisitions. Growing dividend. Yield is 0.58%. (Analysts’ price target is $158.56)

It's been marching up for the last 16 months, doubling since the start of Covid. A lot of this rise came from Covid testing. Yesterday, they reported a top- and bottom-line beat, as revenues grew 26% YOY, driven by their pharma, chemical and energy businesses. He loves it. Amid sector rotations in the past year, this kept rising steadily.

(A Top Pick Jun 03/20, Up 55%) Great business. Involved in so many industries with secular growth. Underlevered balance sheet, so they'll be able to take advantage of opportunities.

(A Top Pick Jun 03/20, Up 48%) They've sold a rising number of consumables as medical schools reopen. They've increased revenue guidance for the year as businesses reopen. The valuation is reasonable. He expects them to buy companies in Asia to add to their growth.

He likes this for their US dividend fund. They will benefit from the urgency to build labs to find a vaccine for COVID-19. An interesting market to be involved in. The space is very oligopolistic and the the company owns a 20% marketshare. Its balance sheet is under-levered he feels and a large amount of recurring revenue to replace lab components. Yield 0.79% (Analysts’ price target is $87.72)

Re-engineered itself to focus on its test measurement and instrument business. Very broad product line in that space. Moved manufacturing offshore. Really a play on R&D rather than the economy. If you want exposure nanotechnology, optics, Intermaxtic biotechnology, etc. this company has products going into all those areas.

8.5% yield growth. They like the focus on Alberta. The company mainly has two businesses; one is trucking and the other is moving oil service equipment. Pay out ratio is around 65%. Lots of room for distribution increases. No debt on the balance sheet. Risks could be commodity prices or a slow down in the Alberta economy.( which he does not see happening) Paid $24-30.50.

(Top Short July 7/05. Down 11%.) It had fallen below the 200 day moving average and every rally that we had, failed to go higher than the 200 which indicated a negative trend. Historically this stock has an up tick at year end, but will then fall again.

WEAK BUY
Agilent Technologies
In a long upward trend line, and you should never buy during this period. Currently, the stock is trying to break up. It could be a trade. If the stock violates the trend lines, be sure to get out.

DON'T BUY
Agilent Technologies
Not a huge fan of this one. They seem to have trouble executing.

TOP PICK
Agilent Technologies
The knock on this company had been that they were very concentrated in the Olds area of Alberta, but they have now expanded outside that area. Low declines and lots of drilling prospects.

TRADE
Agilent Technologies
Trust conversion is becoming controversial because of vote allowing option holders to vote and large windfall to employees. The windfall is not that large. Likes this trust. Gas weighted. Well operated.

WEAK BUY
Agilent Technologies
A little disappointed by the last 3 quarters and its ability to make its projections. Has a great group of properties in N.E. British Columbia and N.W. Alberta. Multi-zoned which gives it a better chance of making its production.

Q: Preference between Novelis (NVL-T) and this company? A: Prefers the metal producer Alcan over the packager. This company, relying on aluminum prices, can be more volatile, but he's a believer in aluminum prices.
