Bank of Nova Scotia(BNS-T)

Feb 04, 2009
Two-year outlook is probably good for any of the Canadian banks. The challenge and risk with this bank is their Latin American exposure. (See Top Picks.)

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

Feb 04, 2009
Bank Preferreds: Rank higher than common shares in the hierarchy of paying out in case of an issue. New ones being issued now are called perpetual and the price does not change because of the high interest rates. Over the longer term, he would prefer common shares, which gives you potential for a rising dividend.

2 businesses. Harlequin romances have had challenges over the last few years but seems to be turning around. Toronto Star has the largest newspaper circulation. This is a far more challenging business. Balance sheet is somewhat stretched.

Produce culvert pipes and things for bridges and roads. Very good way to play the infrastructure story. 12.25% yield should be safe. Good management.

COMMENT

Bombardier Inc (B)(BBD.B-T)

Feb 04, 2009
Likes the company and even liked the stock when it was around $7. There is a lot of market apprehension about infrastructure, business jets in particular. Very high level of ROE and very strong profit growth. Valuation looks good. It won't go anywhere until corporate spreads narrow in and some of the risk aversion goes away.

Almost across the board, there is a collapsing profitability in Canadian banks. He has been nervous about this area for quite some time. Except for CIBC (CM-T) ROE seems to be falling quite rapidly.
