Stock Opinions by Jason Donville

COMMENT

With a change in the political scene we should get a re-embracement and fixing of the economy by returning to good wages and dealing with the cost of living issues. The Liberals have not been good for business and sentiment with entrepreneurs, and have shown a lack of understanding of how jobs are created and where higher wages come from. They come from value out of industries. Money has been put into AI and battery technology but he feels this has not been done on a day-to-day basis. Mark Carney could turn things around for the Liberals but Christia Freeland could get tagged with the previous policies.

He owns a small position and expects it to be profitable by 2025/26. It is about rebuilding the grid and improving the efficiency of the electrical system. Getting the industry to build new environmental infrastructure is a win-win.

HOLD
goeasy

Keep holding if you have it. It is performing at the operating level and should outperform in 2025. It has been going sideways and is ready to break out.

Financial Services
WAIT

IT is pretty cheap and he has been looking at it but there is a lot of debt. He would buy if the debt gets to where it is less than three years of cash flow. Pretty strong execution.

Healthcare
PARTIAL BUY

He is looking at it. It is very cheap and starting to move, with metrics looking pretty attractive now. It looks like we'll see a more focused company in the future. There was a bubble in the health tech sector but things are sorting themselves out and it looks good for investment. You could probably start buying.

Healthcare
STRONG BUY

It is still growing by over 20% per year and trailing less than 20 X earnings. He is looking for a stock price 20 to 25% higher a year from now. It is getting international notice. Acquisitions are generally small and not big company changing ones. It is the best roll-up stock in Canada and one of the most attractive companies for new investors to buy. They don't do analyst calls.

computer software / processing
DON'T BUY

It is not getting it done with a lot of execution not happening now. It is cheap but needs a private equity group to take it out and have new management. There is already anticipation of a takeout so it is risky.

Dollarama Inc.

It is an outstanding company with great management. It is on the expensive side at 30X earnings but if not buying, it is at least a good long term hold. There will not likely be a pullback.

Consumer Products
Unspecified

It could become the next Paladin. It has great management and ownership along with a good outlook. It made a big acquisition in the U.S. and if the first two quarters go well the stock could go up.

Healthcare
HOLD
Aritzia Inc.

He doesn't have a great feel for retailers but it screens like something he would own and is doing the right things. It is a great company with great financials. The problem is that they go in and out of favour since fashion is fickle. If owned, stay long.

Propel Holdings
(A Top Pick Jun 05/24, Up 79%)

It is a fintech company and a provider of credit through intermediators, all through AI. In fact it is almost a pure AI play. It covers Canada, the U.S. and U.K. It is still trading at a single digit P/E, growing at 67%, with earnings growing almost faster than the share price.

Financial Services
PAST TOP PICK
