COMMENT

A Comment -- General Comments From an Expert(A Commentary)

Apr 21, 2009
What we have seen over the last two months is a change in the psychology. We are not seeing stocks fall like dominos. People are building some confidence. Thinks manufacturers’ inventories have bottomed out and production will have to resume.

HOLD

Ford Motor(F-N)

Apr 21, 2009
Entire auto industry is a hold until the end of June. Then we will know what shape the companies are in. Need to reset their relationships with their unions. Ford has family ownership.

Short and long term problems in industry will all work out. Not sure that domestic manufacturers will be able to satisfy the demand. Toyota is pretty well positioned. Risk is that it is too big. One of the others could come in and undercut them.

COMMENT

A Comment -- General Comments From an Expert(A Commentary)

Dec 09, 2008
Feels that the market is totally in the hands of the US Congress. Feels that the money will be provided to the big three automakers, but there will be conditions, restrictions and performance goals. They need conditions that will let them compete. Feels government caused the problems that they have today and they have to fix it. In favour of the new administration because it will boost confidence in the economy. But there may be problems down the road for Canadians as some of the accords may not be followed. Protectionism is a real risk. Problem is that the banks are not lending, we need to get the economy going.

Best defensive stock you can find. One of the 2 stocks up in Dow Jones over the last two years. Positioned to gain market share. Would buy for a defensive portfolio. They have control of the situation. Is considering buying.
