TOP PICK	Metro Inc (A)(MRU-T) December 7, 2018 Purely defensive. They've been increasing their dividend 10% yearly. A place to hide during the storm.

COMMENT	Metro Inc (A)(MRU-T) November 23, 2018 Seasonally, it does well Jan. 7- May 21, outperforming the market. Since 2016, it's been in a trading range topping at $46, but there's no sign it will break above that soon--the same goes with all the grocers. This sector should pick up this time of year. These cyclicals are around the bottom now. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Seasonally, it does well Jan. 7- May 21, outperforming the market.

COMMENT	Metro Inc (A)(MRU-T) August 21, 2018 From 2016 to early-2017, their chart had an uptrend. Since then, it's been sideways.

DON'T BUY	Metro Inc (A)(MRU-T) August 15, 2018 He does not own anything in this space. The company is well run, but finds the business difficult with constant pressure on margins on several fronts. If it had a 5% dividend it might make sense to own and hold. There is better choices out there. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	He does not own anything in this space.

BUY	Metro Inc (A)(MRU-T) July 9, 2018 It is a seasonal stock. It is a great trading stock. It is going to come into a lid in the mid to high $40s. It has a good potential to get into the $45-$47 area and he would get out of the trade after that. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	It is a seasonal stock. It is a great trading stock.

BUY	Metro Inc (A)(MRU-T) October 18, 2017 There are two equal and offsetting forces. They just made a large acquisition, taking them off their main strategy. It looks like it will be accretive. He likes the deal. The offsetting headwind is the incursion of AMZN-Q into grocery. He thinks this is overdone. Whole foods does not have that big a presence in Canada. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	There are two equal and offsetting forces.

COMMENT	Metro Inc (A)(MRU-T) October 11, 2017 Selling their Couche-Tard shares and buying Jean Coutu (PJC.A-T). Amazon (AMZN-Q) is entering the market with their purchase of Whole Foods.

COMMENT	Metro Inc (A)(MRU-T) September 6, 2017 Very well-run in Canada, but has been under pressure recently due to Amazon’s acquisition of Whole Foods, which has pressured US grocers to a much greater degree. Reduced his position in the mid-$40. Well-run, and at the right price, the kind of company you can own, but be mindful that longer-term there is a potential margin and headwind from various technologies that are changing on how Canadians are buying groceries. The present price is fair. food stores 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Very well-run in Canada, but has been under pressure recently due to Amazon’s acquisition of Whole Foods, which has pressured US grocers to a much greater degree.
