It is an incredibly well run company. They make reasonable profits. Their customers are very happy with them. It is a well diversified company and they make great returns on their capital. They generate a lot of free cash flow. They are very disciplined on that. The risk is that they have no control over the auto cycle. Their margins can get quite compressed. MG-T feels they will have a higher content on electric cars than internal combustion cars.

Well run with good management. A cyclical business, where car sales are flattening globally. Statistically cheap right now. There may be a 6 month trade in this. A further slowing in the economy, would not hurt this stock materially. He would look for only $3-$4 per share upside before taking profit.

He sold it a year ago with concerns about the economy slowing and the auto cycle peaking. Also, Magna has a dispute with an Asian joint-venture deal. And the steel tariffs didn't help. They produce things cheaply in Mexico, but sell few products down there, which is a negative, vulnerable to protectionism.

Long term? The auto cycle peaked and is declining. Don't own it for the yield, because auto stocks are cyclical. Be cautious here. Swings in valuation mean, don't hold these stocks for a long time, but trade them. He avoids the car space.

(A Top Pick Sep 05/18, Down 6%) Trades at 7x earnings. cash easily cover its dividend. it's a growth cyclical stock. The auto space is turning over, but he expects only a mild downturn. Over the next three years, MG will generate cash flow equal to a third of the company. Pays a 3% dividend. Still likes it.

They just reported results. They had to trim their guidance. They will probably not do wrong by their shareholders. They buy 5% of their shares back annually. Their payout ratio is only about 20%. They know what they are doing. 7 or 8 times forward earnings. You have to have a long term outlook.

There has been a slow down in the global auto market -- especially in China. It looks reasonably valued at only 6 times earnings and a yield of 3%. It trades at 1.3 times book. He would continue to hold.

Missed earnings last quarter. Lower 2019 volumes. Concern that new technology will elevate costs. Only 1% EPS growth. Exceptionally cheap at 6x. Really good over the long term, if not the next year. (Analysts’ price target is $72.11)

Among Canadian car-parts-makers, they have the most exposure to Daimler, which just issued a weak earnings report. This sector appear to have bottomed, so maybe consider it now. He prefers Linamar, which is cheaper (offers a lower valuation) and it is not purely into cars, but also some industrial production.

As the cycle ends. The market pays for growth and Magna had a weak Q1 and lowered guidance. M&A hasn't worked out as planned. No doubt that car sales have slowed. They're in a very cyclical business and we could be at the end of the cycle. Managers are good capital allocators and will fix their China problem. Emerging markets continue to grow and will feed demand for cars, even near the end of the peak.

It broke through the down trend back in early 2019 and had been making some motions to see a reversal. However, the recent new lows below $60 may be signalling a resumption of the longer term bear trend. Key support near $60. He would be out if that level is breached. A rally with 10-15% upside is possible.

She is on the sidelines for the auto parts sector. MG-T had to reduce guidance lately with a slow down coming in Europe. Meanwhile the company is investing in expensive autonomous technology. She is staying away.

(A Top Pick Jul 10/18, Down 24%) They had a lousy Q1. They overpaid an acquisition in China. They had a write-down elsewhere. Good managers, but the market didn't cut them a break over these mistakes. They still generate a lot of free cash flow and he expects heavy share buybacks to come. This is a screaming buy.

He recommended it last December, but the chart has since deteriorated and is still finding a floor. He's now cautious. Resistance is at $62. He wants to see more volume before he reconsiders.

The stock has taken a hit since they reported weaker earnings, but they are a global operator and pay a decent yield. He owns no car stocks; it's a tough sector with trade tensions overhanging it. He slightly prefers Martinrea.

We were seeing an extended cycle for the autos. Now we are seeing some erosion in sales. We are almost at the support level. It looks like we are in a head and shoulders pattern. He would not look at it.

He sold it last fall because the auto cycle is maturing (sales have peaked in North America where Magna has one-third of its business), and Magna was having trouble with a joint venture in China where it's hard to enforce contracts. True, the stock has bounced back since he sold last fall, but he'd still be out.

Like the chart. It broke below its 20-day moving average. It had a hammer pattern last year that flushed out a lot of weak hands/investors. It's now testing $71-72. If it slips below that, it will fall to $67. Falling to $61 is not a good sign. You can buy it now and happily hold it for a year.

He owns it and is glad to see it having a good year. It trades at 8 times earnings -- cheap he thinks. If you are looking at a balanced portfolio, this is good to include. He is not ecstatic about the auto space, he still likes owning it. They sell parts to all the manufacturers.

It's late in the cycle for Magna, though it's done very well. They are vulnerable to an auto war/tariffs, and it faces Tesla and other tech competitors that are coming.

Owned this for years, but sold it last October because its valuation got too high. Magna also had problems with a join venture in China, which is difficult to resolve. Add to that the auto cycle is plateauing.

In a trading zone. A dividend grower. He would not be a buyer right now as it is lacking any trending action. It needs to move above $73 until he would be interested.

A good company with big cash reserves and fine performance, but there's a lot of negativity in auto parts now. He doubts the stock will rise in the near future, but historically, they survive these down trends and do things like share buybacks. MG could be on his radar down the line.

He keeps watching it. Great balance sheet. They've been growing their dividend this cycle, but auto sales have rolled over. Magna is still making good money, but trading at 7-8x earnings because the market believes that the auto companies are rolling over; production and sales have rolled over. He's cautious about it. He may buy it 10-15% lower.
