Has pulled back recently, so it’s a good time to add more shares. Feels energy prices will remain pretty firm. They just announced production guidance for 2014 that it is going to be higher. Will probably sustain their current levels based on economic movements and economic recovery, especially with geopolitical problems happening globally. 6.1% yield.
Banks have really under-performed versus the S&P 500. This is due to regulation issues out there and interest rates remaining lower than expected. On valuation you are looking at 1.35X Book Value compared to the TSX financial sector at 1.85X. With the strengthening US economy, a recovering housing market, lower loan loss provisions and better credit issues, this should do quite well.
Weakness is due to the assumption that inventories have been growing a bit more, and there has been a little bit more sale product going on than normal. He feels these are just normal ways of business. The recent drop presents a pretty good buying opportunity. Trading at 20X PE with a 20%+ growth rate. Assuming the growth rate continues, this has a PEG ratio below 1. They’ll continue to gain market share. They have products that are more value oriented and more for high-end. 72% of their revenues come from the US, so there is lots of opportunity going into the international markets like Europe and Japan. Also, e-commerce is an opportunity for them going forward.
Sell and move into another telco? Because the yield is quite a bit higher than the other names, you should hang on to this. Some sort of consolidation in the space, could be there.
