HOLD
Magna Int'l. (A)

Does not own shares. Volatile stock. Scores 8/10 fundamentally. Would hold of already own. Not a good time to invest otherwise.

HOLD

Is sensitive to the economy which he sees weakening. Cyclical. The consumer is stretched and the savings rate is declining. Yes, PEs are cheap, and MG supplied gas-engine as well as E-cars. He likes the auto companies, but now is not a great time for them.

Transition to electric has caused a bit of pain on retooling factories. Once the transition is complete, they can't go back and forth. Union negotiations will impact car prices. He'd prefer an actual automaker like Toyota.

BUY
Magna Int'l. (A)

A good company and major player in car parts. Shares have been volatile lately due to higher interest rates, labour costs, commodity prices and microchip prices. However, inflation is easing and so are supply chain bottlenecks. Good profits and balance sheet. Hold and enjoy the yield.

Since peaking in early 2021, MG has been in a downtrend. Now, it's forming a base. If it breaks $85 and stays there a few weeks, that's good.  But it keeps rubbing against that resistance level and he doesn't see a catalyst to take it higher.

Looks like it will go down to $68. Consumer spending is slowing down. You want to see a breakout above $81-82. Of the 10K stocks you can look at, there are better ones with better patterns.

If there's a recession, car demand will decline. Also, inflation has been a headwind for these companies. They can't raise prices to absorb costs anymore; they're hitting a ceiling. These companies are cyclical, not defensive. Wait for this sector to bottom before stepping in.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research.

MG reported EPS of $1.49 beating estimates of $1.18, and revenues of $14.34B beating estimates of $13.35B. Sales grew by 11% for the quarter, which was well above the global light vehicle production growth of 3%. Management raised its EBIT margin outlook to 4.7% to 5.1% from 4.1% to 5.1%. Its Adjusted EBIT declined for the quarter, from $507M to $437M. This year-over-year decline is largely a result of higher net production input costs, operating inefficiencies at a facility in Europe, and higher net engineering costs. We feel that these were strong results that beat estimates and included a guidance raise, but it did issue debt for the quarter and was cash flow negative. We continue to like the name but feel that it needs to see some of the near-term headwinds lifted before we become overly excited about its opportunity.

Underperformed TSX since 2021. Fairly cheap at 10x forward earnings. Concerned that 75% of revenue comes from top 5 customers. Raw material costs are volatile, which adds uncertainty. Move to EV is pressuring margins. Automakers have committed to lower production, which impacts revenues.

Magna Int'l. (A)

International operations. Top 3 supplier globally. Historically inexpensive multiple. Shares volatile recently. Higher interest rates, higher commodity prices, higher input and labour costs, supply chain issues. Remains cautious. 

Inflation waning, supply bottlenecks easing. Very good management. Long-term hold. Nice dividend above market yield.

They participate in assembling EVs, but will be hit by inflation in raw costs and wages. This will constrain them and profits.

Automotive
BUY
Magna Int'l. (A)

Respects its business. If valuation swung in its favour, he'd look to add. Issues last quarter when margins and earnings were much lower than anticipated. Inflation challenges, plus more exposed to Europe. Good time to get in given increase in auto production over next 2 years. His choice in the sector is LNR.

PARTIAL BUY
Magna Int'l. (A)

A great company, but shares plunged in February after they issued weak guidance and numbers. The current $70 price is resistance, so you can buy a partial position and see what happens. Certainly enter around $65.

DON'T BUY
Magna Int'l. (A)

Better off owning suppliers rather than OEM auto companies. Difficult to transition from combustion to electric. Tough to keep both sides going. Massive buildup on the EV side will help, but combustion provides the cash. Cheap for a reason. A trade at best, not for the long term.

Automotive
BUY
Magna Int'l. (A)

He does think there's some benefit in auto parts/repair. These companies are better value and have more upside. Interest rates will be challenging for a bigger purchase like a car. People who buy cars also tend to have mortgages. That's why he favours parts companies over the auto makers.
