Most Anticipated Earnings: GIB.A-T, AC-T and more Canadian Companies Reporting Earnings this Week (Jul 28-Aug 01)

Opinion about CLS-T: In general, margins for contract manufacturers are very thin. But this name's on a roll. Great space, as the world will continue to build data centres. Very strong earnings momentum. Consistent upgrades to earnings estimates, which is what you want in a growth stock. Better than 98% of companies in the S&P…

Opinion about GIB.A-T: Global operations; with Canada representing ~15% of revenue, US ~30%, 44-45% in Europe and UK. Outsourcing (~55% of the business) has long-term contracts, so that's defensive and not as cyclical. Consulting side tends to be more economically sensitive. Stock's pulled back ~17% from highs in February. About 14% of revenue is from doing…

Opinion about LMN-X: LMN vs. TOI TOI would be his choice, mainly based on geography in Europe (which is still expressing value) and its runway is a bit better. The strings for both are actually being pulled by the parent CSU.

Opinion about LSPD-T: Bought recently on weakness. Tried for corporate restructuring, but nothing's happened. Focusing on a higher-end but smaller customer base, which is taking time to implement. Tech company trading at 2x revenue, starting to generate operating cashflow. Cheap valuation, buying back a ton of stock. Worth at least a trade.

Opinion about CVO-T: Good job overall, well run. Exposed to some of the AI trends. Sizable competition for what they do. He's conservative on whether it can differentiate itself in the coming years. Must show it can get the big, multi-year contracts.

Opinion about T-T: Best telecom in Canada. Yield of 7.4% is secure, but quite elevated relative to its 10-year average. Yield alone is not enough; feels it'll grow at a faster pace than peers, validated by company actions. All players should face easier earnings comparisons in wake of the detrimental price war. Financial strength and…

Opinion about TIXT-T: It has dropped 90% since its IPO. A buyout from Telus has been proposed so you could hold it until the deal closes for a bit more.

Opinion about TFII-T: It has sold off a lot so you could start a position and dollar cost average into a turn-around. It has a healthy balance sheet and lots of free cash flow so it will turn around so don't wait even though it could go lower.

Opinion about TLRY-Q: A lot of $$ was made, but now investors have come to realize marijuana is just a commodity. The company bears all the costs, but it has the federal/provincial government as a partner that shares equally in all the upside, but none of the down. Even advertising is restricted.For a consumer stock,…

Opinion about TIH-T: Is a catch-up trade that will test previous highs around $132. If we are starting a new cycle, copper will benefit. The chart shows higher highs and higher lows, but consolidation lies ahead as the USD rallies. (Analysts’ price target is $128.89)

Opinion about AC-T: Not compelling right now for transparently understanding where it could go to. With the tariffs, this business is something that could actually be on the table; the dynamics of the Canadian market might change dramatically. Makes most of its money off international flights.

Opinion about ASTL-T: Amid new tariff threats. Go back to the 2017 timeframe and look at the last time he did this with steel and aluminum. Cheap for a reason. Need a high tolerance for risk and volatility to put a position on right now. These names are down, compared to US names that are…

Opinion about ECO-T: He is one of the largest shareholders in this. They now have 2 commercial mills up and running with their DuraBind products. They make the binding that goes into IKEA-like furniture. Not into IKEA yet, but there is a good chance they will be. IKEA has announced that they want all their…

Opinion about GFL-T: (A Top Pick Sep 11/24, Up 23%) Wonderful business run by really good people. Recurring cashflows. Trades at lower multiple than major competitors and growing faster. Lots of chances to improve operations.

Opinion about MX-T: 8/10 on value. EPS down 32% YOY, revenue forecast to be down 5%. Moderate buy on the street, with significant upside target of 38%. Well below 50-day MA and below 200-day MA. Wait for a solid turnaround to see conviction that it's trending upward. Decent dividend yield.Reports July 30, hinting at potential…

Opinion about XTC-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research For its fourth fiscal quarter, XTC matched EPS estimates of 20c. Revenue missed estimates of $160M coming in at $155.4M, declining 3% year-over-year. The company's outlook for next year calls for $750M in  revenue, $120M in EBITDA, and EPS of approximately $1.50.…

Opinion about DRT-T: Customized, prefabricated environmental office interior solutions. High net cash position. Significant upside because of their flexible business model. Surge in office reconfiguration taking place across North America. Top management. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $3.46)

Opinion about BBD.B-T: Pleased with performance. Continues to like. Runup this month due to contract to deliver 50 aircraft. Pure play on private aviation. A generation or half a generation ahead of competitors in medium- and long-range aircraft. It's the best on a range of metrics, and its money-is-no-object customers don't comparison shop. After-market parts…

Opinion about WTE-T: Canada has some of the best high-grade coal for steelmaking, and this company exports it. Permits to build new mines are being held up by environmental concerns. Safe name, good dividend. Even if coal falls off, export capability is still intact. Yield is 6.8%.

Opinion about CFP-T: Homebuilding stocks in the US have been going straight up, but Canadian forestry stocks have been going the other way. WFG has done the best in holding its share price.IFP and CFP have really started to bottom on the charts. He hasn't done enough digging to know who has a better earnings…

Opinion about NFI-T: He owns it in the Canadian portfolio. There is a supply shortage of buses and it has a new big order from Toronto. There have been some liquidity challenges but they are abating. They make any kind of bus but the electric ones carry the biggest price premium so they can make…

Opinion about ARE-T: If you own it, not the end of the world. Trades at pretty steep discount (16x PE) to peers (closer to 22x), as it's less profitable and less growthy. Interesting segment called "Concessions", where they take partnership stakes in infrastructure investments. Yields ~4%, and grows dividend about 6% a year.Better choice is…

Opinion about AFN-T: Frustrating, he sold. Numbers good, but continues to have lots of problems in its farm business. Commercial side's been pretty strong. Some of its geographies have been weak. Guided down. Not worth it, look elsewhere.

Opinion about FAR-T: Mining services, and rapidly growing water treatment. Very well run, nice clean balance sheet. Missed a couple of quarters because junior miners reduced activity. Numbers looked flat or down. With tariff threat, he wanted his best ideas only and he sold.Now, mining activity is picking up. May have seen the trough on…

Opinion about CFX-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research CFX has been on a steady downtrend. Revenue has been in decline over the last two years, free cash flow has gone negative and it has been operating at a net loss since 2019. Debt has been increasing as well and net…

Opinion about MG-T: Very hesitant. Recent recovery has been sharp and quick, almost as though it's factoring in abolition of tariffs completely. We need more clarity on tariffs. Auto industry is highly cyclical and depends on health of the economy, and we're seeing signs of weakening.If you own it, don't need the cash, and have…

Opinion about ALC-T: It isn't in his data base. The host mentioned its yield is just under 5% and it has a market cap of 660 million.

Opinion about NGD-T: Collection of Tier 2 assets. Never been fond of Ontario assets. He likes higher quality. Could do very well with a rising price for gold, which tends to favour the marginal over the lower-cost producer.

Opinion about S-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research It is certainly not beyond possibility. Bloomberg default ratio is 7.36%, which is very high for that indicator. Cash flow was negative in the last quarter, yet 12-month interest expenses were $36.1M net. With its small size and Cuban and other issues,…

Opinion about AEM-T: Biggest single equity holding he has in client portfolios. He did trim, as it got to be way too big a position. Like the gold price, has stagnated over the last few months. Sees it as portfolio protection, insulates from inflation and geopolitical concerns. Tariff issues are still to be resolved, and…

Opinion about K-T: Whole bunch of decent assets, including a new one in Ontario. Stock will either go up of its own volition, or get taken over. Stock's performed well due to good cost containment. Good production growth and pipeline. Firing on all cylinders.

Opinion about IVN-T: Stock fell precipitously because of underground stability issues in Congo mine; operation is temporarily suspended as they fix it. Suspects this issue might last 6-8 months; part of the answer involves less aggressive underground mining. Longer term, that complex is nowhere near maturity in terms of copper production. Bringing on world's largest…

Opinion about AGI-T: Reports on July 30. Great performer. Moved up from small cap to something bigger and more diversified. Still likes it, though there was some disappointment after release of Q1 results. Good portfolio of mines, pretty good organic growth profile. Recent acquisition will be synergistic. Mines are in jurisdictions where not at risk…

Opinion about CIA-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research EPS came in at $0.24 beating estimates of $0.20. Revenue came in at $506.89M beating forecasts of $486.08M and displayed growth of 31% year-over-year. Profit more than doubled on a year-over-year basis coming in at $126.46M. The board approved the company's $470.7-million…

Opinion about TKO-T: Does not own shares. Prefers companies companies with lower costs and higher return on capital. 

Opinion about ARG-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research We think ARG is doing the right things. Debt was an issue in prior cycles, and it has cut/eliminated its dividend in the past. Now, it is in strong financial shape and very cheap at 8X earnings. It has been cash flow…

Opinion about AMX-X: $45 million market cap. It has a gold project in western Quebec and hitting some high-grade at less than a meter, 600+grams/tonne. Their issue is continuity: will this grade continue? Now, it is an interesting play. Brent Cook: It's a narrow, high-grade vein but could be diluted which is a concern.

Opinion about LI-X: The company and lithium has got over hyped. The world is awash with lithium. We are short of processing capabilities. This is not the best capital allocator either.

Opinion about CCO-T: (A Top Pick Jul 22/24, Up 64%) Nuclear renaissance, and then Russian invasion of Ukraine really tightened up supply and turbo-charged the idea. Cigar Lake producing steadily. Mothballed mine reopened. Low-cost, long-life reserves. Joint venture with Kazakhstan facing issues, but that's a small piece of the puzzle.Deals with data centres continue. Uranium…

Opinion about EDV-T: Owns shares in company. Troubled by CEO replacement, however assets in West Ghana are valuable. Will continue to hold. Has lots of value in company. 

Opinion about ELD-T: (A Top Pick Dec 13/22, Up 19.2%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with ELD has triggered its stop at $13.50.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.  This will result in a net investment gain of 19%, when combined with our previous recommendations.  

Opinion about ERO-N: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research ERO in June reached commercial operations at its Tucuma mine, which is good, but often results in some investors selling on news. Then, the copper market this week was sent into turmoil with Trump's import tax plan. ERO has received a couple…

Opinion about WRN-T: It has a great management team and the Yukon is a friendly place to develop. Infrastructure is the issue. Smaller mining operations can deal with this, but lack of power and transportation are challenging. Where copper prices are, this is still too levered -- you need copper prices to go higher.

Opinion about BSX-T: They have a large Brazilian gold deposit. The problem here are indigenous people challenges there and a government contract that pays out a crazy amount to the managers. This payout is not aligned to the shareholders' interests. Then again, it's a cheap stock vs. gold in the ground.

Opinion about ARX-T: Near the bottom of a trading pattern. Uptrend. Hitting a bit of resistance, but touching the longer-term trendline. The lows are getting higher, nothing's breaking down. He just added another 2% to his position. Decent dividend yield of 2.82%. (Analysts’ price target is $34.53)

Opinion about ITH-T: Primary asset is an Alaskan property Livengood. Have been in the process over the last 3-4 years of proving it reserves. Interesting way to play gold because of volatility of a junior so be careful what you allocate to it. High potential development and pretty well developed infrastructure setting. Obvious takeover target…

Opinion about GEI-T: It is shown as a sell. Its overall free cash flow of 2.5% is modest but standard. Look elsewhere for total investment opportunities in this sector, eg. Imperial Oil.

Opinion about TPZ-T: Top of the heap for what he'd want to own in terms of O&G royalty companies and infrastructure.

Opinion about TCW-T: 100% up. Sell? Ask yourself what the opportunity is. We've seen a real change in the oilfields over the last decade. Instead of growth at all costs, companies have decided to get balance sheets in order and pay back capital to shareholders. So this name has fewer opportunities. That said, LNG Canada…

Opinion about PD-T: (A Top Pick May 23/24, Down 37%) He sold this around $90. It's tied to the fall in oil prices as drilling activity slides. Shares are at a 28% free cash flow yield, but he isn't confident about that figure. Revisit this in maybe 6 months after the market absorbs OPEC oversupply.

Opinion about TOU-T: Good time to buy. He bought in last month or so. Very good operator. Secret sauce is that it has the best drilling inventory, many decades worth. Largest nat gas producer in Canada, about 13-14%. Owns much of its own infrastructure, which gives them operational flexibility. Smart about diversifying away from a…

Opinion about POU-T: It is a good value stock. It explores and develops conventional oil and gas. It is too volatile for them even though it outperformed the last quarter. You could trim back and wait for a more favourable price target. It is a mix of buy, hold and sell.

Opinion about TVE-T: It is just below their minimum market cap requirement of $2.8 billion but ranks well in their data base and is reasonably priced. Its earnings estimates are set to decline by 45% this year and 63% next year. Much depends on the price of oil. Imperial Oil ranks better. 

Opinion about PXT-T: Yield is 13%. Dividend not sustainable. Great candidate for tax-loss selling, and buy another high yielder (such as WCP) with the proceeds. WCP has meaningfully better assets, reliable management, with no Colombian geopolitical risk. 

Opinion about CJ-T: Bought at $8.50, now at $6.64. Sentiment remains challenged in the space (a common theme today), even though the Energy Index is up about 20% YTD. People are hiding in large caps, with few funds coming to small- or mid-caps. Hard to see it outperforming. Yield is 10.7%, pretty hard to replace.…

Opinion about SGY-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research SGY is quite small at $510M, but the stock is very cheap. With a 10% dividend, a buyer (or privatization) could eliminate the dividend and use internal cash flow to pay for the whole company in about three years. But, that doesn't…

Opinion about SOIL-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research At less than 4X earnings, the stock is one of the cheapest within the sector (no dividend). The stock is down 21% YTD and 35% over one year. Debt is pretty high at 2X cash flow. Revenue has grown nicely, but earnings/cash…

Opinion about SHLE-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research The stock is exceptionally cheap at 4X earnings but that has not prevented a 13% YTD decline. The balance sheet is a bit levered but nothing too concerning. Insiders own 14% and have been net buyers in 2025. It's interesting, but very…

Opinion about TRP-T: He owned it for a while. Had a big run-up last year but thinks it is pretty much done now with a lot of insider selling. Tends to have big swings.

Opinion about CVE-T: You might see a 3 to 4% drop if the rumoured offer goes through. It has a great upstream business with its strong oil sands holdings. It owns some old refineries in the U.S. which have caused some issues. It is one of the cheapest in valuation in Canada for the sector.

Opinion about BTE-T: (A Top Pick May 23/24, Down 48%) It's down because of the fall in oil prices, pure and simple. He sold this around $4. The stock will excel if oil returns to $70+, but not at $60. He will revisit this at better oil prices later.

Opinion about KEL-T: Has deep assets, which they won't sell for 9-12 months, as they add others. He can't own every midcap, though this is good.

Opinion about OBE-T: Not a good investment with current management team. Other energy companies available with better opportunities.

Opinion about CFW-T: Oilfield services firm that has big fracturing technology presence. Horizontal drilling and shale boom not as strong. Very dependent on energy prices. Lots of assets that must be carried on the books. Not investing at this time. 

Opinion about MEG-T: Thoughts on the offer? Both SCR and MEG held in taxable account. He's not an M&A guy. If you want a really good answer, ask somebody else 😉  A board will often reject something like this because they think it should be higher. And maybe a competitor will come along with a…

Opinion about ENB-T: Likes all the pipelines. Energy infrastructure spending is a huge area for Canada over the next number of years. This name is a prime beneficiary. Good dividend yield. 

Opinion about IMO-T: (A Top Pick Mar 12/25, Up 17%) (Note the short timeframe.)  Just took profits, and rolled them into natural gas. Chart's broken out, so an investor could choose to stay in the stock. Nothing wrong with the company.

Opinion about ALA-T: (A Top Pick Feb 07/25, Up 19%) (Note the short timeframe.)  Plays right into the gas theme. Exciting part is the Washington Gas & Light subsidiary, which ships nat gas to the county with 15% of the world's data centres. Great yield. Best utility in NA.

Opinion about MCB-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research MCB provides services and equipment to the energy sector, such as drilling equipment and replacement parts. It also makes heavy-duty trailers. It is small at a $116M market cap, and cheap at 11.5X forward earnings. It has a decent dividend yield of…

Opinion about IFC-T: It's delivered, and it's been a great acquisition story. He's not playing the insurance side as much right now. Food for thought:  what's autonomous driving going to do to rates and payouts? Theoretically, it should be positive. Could be a cornerstone of the financial part of your portfolio, but he doesn't own…

Opinion about FCR.UN-T: Grocery-anchored retail in major cities in Canada. Most in-demand asset class in real estate today. Irreplaceable portfolio of great retail properties. World-class assets. Will have great rent growth, as new builds are too costly. Potential down the road to build apartments or condos on top of current sites, further adding to value…

Opinion about BEI.UN-T: One of the larger Canadian apartment REITs. Mostly in Alberta, where there's no rent control. So with population growth, it can raise rates faster. But if economic slowdown in Alberta, this name feels it faster. Pivot in Canadian immigration policy put the whole apartment sector under pressure.Well run. Alberta's economy is doing…

Opinion about FN-T: Good company, but dividend too high. Mature company. Better growth companies out there. Well run, and stable business. Lots of mortgage exposure but overall a good business. 

Opinion about AP.UN-T: Contrarian play. Office sector had a sharp downturn with Covid, vacancies skyrocketed, financial pressures. Stepped in when it was unduly discounted to NAV.

Opinion about MEQ-T: Apartment buildings mostly in Alberta, a few in BC. Founder is one of the most remarkable entrepreneurs John's ever met. Good assets and Alberta is thriving. Tends to be more volatile than BEI.UN, but has strong fundamentals. Perhaps some pressure from immigration reform as it's more exposed to student housing, but that…

Opinion about MRG.UN-T: Apartments on both sides of the border. Always trades at wide discount to NAV, a good starting point when you invest. Nice portfolio. Keep holding if you own, but better ideas out there. Nice distribution of 5.5%.

Opinion about PMZ.UN-T: Why higher implied cap rate than peers? He scratches his head about this too. Likes it here. A bit of concern about shopping malls in general, with their sensitivity to the consumer. From what his team sees, consumers are continuing to spend $$. And it's cold up here, we love our malls.…

Opinion about MRC-T: NAV materially higher than share price. Doesn't see catalysts for NAV increasing, so discount will continue. Asset base is mainly retail and office, sectors that are somewhat out of favour. Earnings potential not great. Higher than average cost of debt.

Opinion about TF-T: Pool of money trading on the stock exchange, which they invest in short-term first and second mortgages. Can't specify a rate of return, but you get 100% of the income on those mortgages. The income you get is based on the interest rate.The dip earlier this year on the chart was because…

Opinion about ISC-T: (A Top Pick Feb 19/25, Up 20%) (Note the short timeframe.)  Steady business. Lots of FCF, nice dividend. Good run, but still cheap.

Opinion about MRT.UN-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Trading at high discount to NAV. Significant cash retention compared to peers. Diversified cash flow streams. Bid competition to slow acquisition growth.

Opinion about DRR.UN-T: Focused on assets in US. Has never traded above its IPO price. Pursuing strategic alternatives; if you own it, see how those go.

Opinion about ACD-T: (A Top Pick July 26/13. Up 18.07%.) A niche lender to small businesses. Very, very well run. They raise their dividend almost every year. Insiders own piles of stock. Very conservative. They are finding new ways to grow the bottom line. Have lots of capital, which is all deployed. Expects earnings will…

Opinion about FFH-T: He's been in and out of this one and probably should have just stayed in. Really good company. Trend is good. If you own, definitely hold. Has probably arced off the trendline a bit, so it'll probably pull back a bit and you can buy more.

Opinion about X-T: He likes the sector but it is not really a small cap now so he doesn't own it. It created a lot of value with their strategies and carved out out some very unique assets. He feels the value is a bit stretched. He owns Euronet which trades in France

Opinion about CIGI-T: (A Top Pick Nov 06/23, Up 63%) There's still upside. CIGI has benefited from rate cuts, since CIGI is in real estate. Peer CBRE announced strong results two weeks including double-digit revenue growth. There seems to be pent-up demand in the market. They use economic downturns not only to buy companies, but…

Opinion about DFY-T: Focused on efficiencies and growth. Looking to buy Travelers Canada, which would make it the fourth largest in Canada and give them good scale. Trades at 2.4x book value. Time to take some profit.

Opinion about FIH.U-T: One of his highest-conviction investment ideas. Trades at a discount to NAV. A stock to buy for the next decade. India is the largest democracy on the planet, very young demographic, fast-growing economy. Lots of pro-growth and pro-business reforms happening. Portfolio of $3.5B worth of different investments, both public and private. Crown jewel…

Opinion about TSU-T: (A Top Pick Sep 10/24, Down 14%) Took write downs on non-core business operations. Now focused on growing highly profitable businesses that are generating very good combined ratios, both in Canada and US. Book value per share has increased. Great buying opportunity. 

Opinion about AI-T: (A Top Pick Mar 11/24, Up 14%) More conservative than TF, and he owns both. Core position. Nice dividend. Not trying to shoot the lights out, just want to collect the income and reinvest.

Opinion about REAL-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research REAL is in recovery mode; it has a solid Q2 with a 27% 'beat' on earnings. It also has good positive leverage to lower interest rates (now occurring) and the real estate market. Earnings in the next two years will still be…

Opinion about BBU.UN-T: (A Top Pick Feb 19/25, Down 2%) (Note the short timeframe.)  Trades at 30+% discount to NAV. Good long-term way to participate in Brookfield's private equity arm. Buying back stock aggressively, which he likes.

Opinion about BPF.UN-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Debt becoming a concern. Delivery and take-out only sources of sales. Special dividend paid this quarter. Dividend reinstated at a lower rate.

Opinion about WN-T: Owns the majority percentage of Loblaw, so does well when Loblaw does well. Defensive. No longer that cheap. Good name to hold in this type of environment, but wait for a pullback.

Opinion about GIL-T: With tariffs, could see the price of clothing go up. As Springsteen sang, textile jobs are not coming back to NA; clothes will still be imported. Impact on the clothing industry remains to be seen. Thinks prices will go higher, but people still need to get dressed. Onshoring will be a multi-year…

Opinion about TOY-T: A definite series of lower highs and lower lows. Continues to languish, downtrend remains in place. Value trap. Unless something changes, just avoid. So many other good places to put your $$ to work.

Opinion about GOOS-T: Good proxy for health of consumers in Canada. Luxury item that is discretionary. Hard to excited about this style of business. Not seeing major spending from average population. Better options for investors out there. 

Opinion about TVA.B-T: A cash cow, owning many TV channels and make movies. But shares are down, because it's a small cap and there's pressure on TV ad revenues. Still cheap. Quebecor owns 70% and could easily privatize it around $5-6, which he thinks will happen one day. Generates a lot of cash. For patient…

Opinion about CPX-T: (A Top Pick Jun 28/24, Up 69%) Alberta data centres' growth is fantastic, tapping into CPX nat gas power generation. Massive price increase on a new contract.

Opinion about KEC-T: Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research Trading is thin, despite its $480M market cap. Sales had a big drop, to $114M from $159.5M, as prices declined. EPS fell more than half to $1.09 vs $2.57. Production of 24,707 fell slightly. With lower prices, the only way to improve…

Opinion about BIP.UN-T: Dividend stock in their income platform. It's OK, not an exciting chart. Not an unsafe stock to own. Can continue to own it for the dividend.

Opinion about CU-T: With rates moving lower, we should be looking at utilities in general. Stock's topped out in last couple of weeks, could be a near-term ceiling. In terms of LNG demand strengthening over time, he'd prefer names like ENB or TRP. Those names are larger and have more sustainable dividend growth.

Opinion about ACO.X-T: Traditionally trades at a discount. Has no problem with its logistics or acoustics businesses. Great long term. Good, solid dividend yield. If you own it keep holding, especially in a market like this. She prefers FTS and EMA, mainly because she likes their geographic diversification.

Opinion about CUP.U-T: Fortis owns 60%. Challenge is that hurricane comes through every once in a while. Good system. Rates of return are higher than you can get in Canada. He owns Fortis

Opinion about PIF-T: (A Top Pick Aug 31/23, Down 6%) Company very cheap at current share price. Small company that institutions wont look at. Reliable revenues that translate into cash flow. Will continue to hold. Dividend very safe and reliable. New project pipeline very strong. 

Opinion about FTS-T: Dividend choice for an 18-year-old to hold forever. Young investors don't care as much about dividend stocks, but they're really important. It's like collecting rent, instead of making money only once you sell a stock. The earlier they start, the more they reap the benefit of the compounding effect that takes place…

Opinion about BEP.UN-T: Diversified. Trying to find momentum. About 5% upside to price target. EPS growth and revenue have been down. She'd stay away until you see some strong numbers. Decent dividend yield of ~5.5%.

Opinion about TA-T: (A Top Pick Apr 29/25, Up 27.3%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with TA has achieved its target at $16.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering half the position at this time and trailing up the stop (from $11) to $13.

Opinion about BHC-T: Kudos to the new executive at delevering and cleaning things up. Inexpensive valuation. Still a lot of debt. A turnaround story. 3% of your portfolio is a bit heavy. Add some diversity. Had a great move. Be cautious.

Opinion about CRRX-T: (A Top Pick Nov 09/21, Down 51%) The largest provider of pharmaceutical services in Canada. Growing organically and by acquisition. Has higher labour costs - margins should be compressed short term but not longer term. Good management.
