He love this company. Seasonal period for this is from October 28th to end of November. If we look back, Canadian Tire actually has an extremely weak January. It’s part of retail and retail tends to be weak in January. It’s actually only outperformed the TSX Composite 17% of the time in January. He would wait until the end of January into February to pick up this stock.

That’s a hard one to say. It’s one of the stronger stocks now but there’s going to be a lot of jockeying back and forth and buying out. Cannabis stocks are hot and the sector is performing well. He can’t say anything technical since he hasn’t seen a breakdown at this time. When a stock goes vertical like this one, it’s hard to determine the support level when it breaks down. The best way to look for an exit point is if it starts to underperform the market.

(A Top Pick Oct 27/17 Down 1%.) There is a big question mark around the future of delivery. Everybody is scared of Amazon. From a seasonal perspective, UPS doesn’t do well at this time. The seasonal trade finished on December 10th and since has pull back a little bit. From now until March it tends to be a poor performer. It’s better in fall time. This is not the time to be in UPS.

(A Top Pick Oct 27/17 Up 2%.) Has been underperforming lately. It’s a great sector and canadian financials are great companies, but he just thinks there are better opportunities somewhere else. They are looking to come back to the financial sector in January when banks do well again.

(A Top Pick Oct 27/17 Up 4%.) Has done very well in 2017. We saw a correction take place back in November and that actually happens on a fairly regular basis. They exited the sector and then recently came back into it. They are looking to stay in this sector until at least the end of mid-January, if the markets corrects, he would consider exiting, but we are in a seasonal strength period for technology from October 10th until January 17th. Companies tends to spend more of their budget on technology at this time of the year driving the sector up.

They are in recovery mode. It’s all about managing debt at this point and doing that properly. Going back to the glorious years of what it was before will never happen. The chart looks fairly positive, looks like we’re in a breakout now. From his perspective we are not in a seasonal period for health care and pharmaceuticals at all, particularly in the new year. Yes, we’ve had this bit of breakout and had a little bit of an uptick. But watch out if the overall healthcare doesn’t do well and if we don’t have any news from Valeant, we might see that pull back down. He would be cautious and would actually wait until later on. Seasonally we’re not there.

They’ve had their trouble a little bit here. We haven’t really seen a lot of strength. We want it to consolidate a little bit more and see a breakout. Right now, technically, it’s not looking strong. He would be holding off on this.

S&P 500 or DOW From seasonal perspective, the DOW and S&P have the same seasonal period from October 20th to May 5th. The DOW has done particularly well this year because of the large caps. He can’t say anything negative about it all. Technically, it’s strong. Seasonally we’re still in the period for it as well. In the fall-time, it’s typically DOW that tends to perform a bit better. Small cap tends to perform better at this time of the year so the S&P 500 might be a little bit better but they are both in fairly good shape at this point.

From a seasonal perspective, it’s very difficult to do an analysis on a stock like this that had this rapid growth. It has consolidated in the last 2 years, before that in 2015 we saw a ramp up that was fantastic, but right now we’re at the top of the range and it looks like we might be turning down at this point. He would actually be waiting on this one and wait for a pull back, perhaps at level of about $50. That’s a long way down, but if it does get there that would be a good entry point.

Impact of Boeing dispute decision to be announced tomorrow. It will move the stock a little bit but he can’t say on the outcome. Bombardier has said they would make planes in the States. If they didn’t have the relationship with Aribus, it would move the stock a lot more. Now that they have this relationship, it’s very difficult to say what's going to happen. Striking a partnership with Airbus has edged away some of their exposure.

They are building this $3.5 billion petrochemical plant to make plastic which is really interesting. From a company perspective, thats a huge thing for them. It’s going to add some diversification. As far as the actual technicals, we saw this overall flat period followed by a little bit of a correction, and the stock is down overall so far in 2017. Energy stocks tends to perform well in February or early January. This might be a good way to sneak into the sector right now. He would like to see a little bit more strength right now. We have seen a breakout on the downtrend which is positive, but he’d be looking for more of a breakout here.

He hasn’t done a seasonal analysis on this one. But right now he would like to see this broken down trend. If it keeps going down, why trying to catch a falling knife. You want to see the stock moving sideways preferably and then ask yourself what is the point to get in. Something else is going, on. This stock should have done better this year.

They are in a tough industry being in mutual funds and trying to transition out. Saw a big decline from 2015 until 2016 and now we’ve just moved sideways when they should have been moving up. We are in seasonal period and financial companies tends to get strong at this time of the year. From a seasonal perspective, look at April to be getting out if you’re in it. He doesn’t see an exciting opportunity here. If they break above the $30 level that might actually be a good thing. Technically it’s looking OK despite being flat for most of the year.

They suspended the dividends but there is an expectation they are going to restore it. Going sideways, fairly good development overall. We are not in the seasonal period for energy. It can be a little weak in January. If it get closer to $19 level or so, that would be a good technical buy signal. We’ve seen some pickup with higher lows so technically this looks better as we get into the seasonal period for energy stock.

This is the time period where small caps stocks tends to go up until the beginning of March. A lot of it is from tax loss selling that helps drive it up. The small cap sector tends to perform well at this time.
