Big rally today after the US Fed held interest rates, doing a 180 from what they talked about just a month ago. The market wanted this. Earnings are a little uncertain. The recent sell-off lowered expectations, which is good. Also, there's a global slowdown, but not a recession. Then there are the US-China trade talks.

Traditional big box stores have been challenged, and Macys has been one of the better ones in cutting costs and doing online business. But they still face challenges. Monetizing real esteate is a good way to raise money and boost returns, but Hudson's Bay proves that if the underlying business isn't strong, then this strategy won't work. This remains challenging. Be cautious here.

Solid business. They're the biggest potash supplier in the world. They've gone into retail. After a downturn in recent years, they're slowing coming out of it. There are supply issues from other suppliers, though. It's a solid name in this space. Depending on how things go with China (a big postash buyer), NTR should do well in the next few years. This is a long-term buy.

Considering the China-US trade war So far, there hasn't been a direct impact. TECK is one of the biggest suppliers of coal to China. If China is truly slowing down and the war gets worse, yes NTR will be hit. It's a good name long term, but don't be too aggressive with this now.

They've've had a bumpy recent few quarters with rising expenses and growth issue. It's never been the cheapest stock, but you can accumulate this for the long term. He's confident they will emerge from their recent problems.
