It is a tough one. He would like to see a quarter or two with Red Hat before deciding to go in. He is not rushing out.

He likes it--slower growth, higher yield, something to hold onto for the long term. Its valuation is lower than its peers. Its debt is lower than ENB-T's. The dividend pays over 6%. Not flashy and it's boring, but you want something safe like this. Oil itself swings to extremes though millennials and ESG will stay away from energy long-term.

Offers growth and 5.8% yield, but the debt-to-operating cash flow is 6x and other metrics are looking stretched. It's enjoyed a great move in the past year. Don't add to it, but hold it and look at telcos like BCE.

It's really a loss-leader. Profits lie in the server side (the cloud) with only a few players in this space like MSFT. That said, this will continue to grow. Valuation is very high, but this will remain a growth leader with segments like Amazon Prime doing well.
Doesn't like the merger with POW. Sell PWF and buy Aecon? Don't because Aecon has its own issues, and the merger makes sense. PWF/POW was an old-1980s structure and needed to consolidate to raise the overall value. Problem is, there's is little growth in the company's existing businesses. Mutual funds are getting crushed by ETFs, and low interest rates limit revenues. You can sell and buy something else, but not Aecon though to be fair he hasn't looked closely at it lately.

It was the cheapest bank out there, but other banks' valuations have come down, so LB isn't as cheap anymore. LB can't expand; they don't have a national footprint. He doesn't own banks now, but would rank LB down the list. TD is his choice in this sector.
The pharma retailers are becoming full-service, like Loblaw buying Shoppers Drug Mart. There's better growth in drugstore bricks and mortar retailing. Trades at a reasonable multiple. You're fine to hold this.

They're doing a better job as a Canadian retail bank, but there are some problems with their Latin American operations. This is getting interesting with its valuation and potential growth. However, low interest rates are a damper. He'd rank this behind TD, his top Canadian bank. He owns no Canadian banks now.

Visa vs. Mastercard Mastercard. Visa stumbled in the last quarter and has a high valuation.
