COMMENT

The strengthening US dollar this time of year usually weakens, but recently it has popped due to Turkey. Seasonally, there's always something this time of year that happens to hit the market, in this case Turkey. We see lower volumes this time of year. The put-call ratio now is really high. He sees the US dollar weakening a bit. Conditions are ripe for markets like the TSX to keep going, but the US midterms could pressure them. We may pause in October before a rally. The conditions, in general, are good for a rally.

COMMENT

It should be rising this time of year. It's just returned to the February low of $40. Now is a good risk-reward entry point. Seasonality is supposed to start in early-July. If it falls below $40, then it's showing weakness, which is due to rising interest rates. Generally, Canadian utilities are underperforming vs. US utilities.

BUY

It should be rising now. It's had a great run since Februry, though it's seen recent weak momentum. It should hold around $9. Well-run company. The US dollar will have a strong influence in the energy sector. Hang onto it or buy around $9.

BUY

Pipelines look good. Pembina has had a nice upward trend since last fall. It's breaking out to new highs and looks good. Peers are also faring well, like Altagas.

HOLD

It had a big spike in the spring above $50. Right now, it's around $45. With the next earnings report, this could go either way, up or down. This stock could test the range of $38-44. It's volatile. Hold if you're long term. He expects this to test $44.

PAST TOP PICK

(Past Top Pick on Sept 21, 2017, Up 16%) He took some profits. A great name wth a great chart. He swapped it out for BMO in December. Still likes TD. The issue with the banks in general is how much runway do they have left (in the housing market).

PAST TOP PICK

(Past Top Pick on Sept 21, 2017, Up 6%) Has enjoyed a nice trend though it fell to $105 (in April) which is a test level. It's volatile, but every portfolio must hold biotech, which is what this ETF carries.

BUY

A fantasatic chart. Nice positve action. Up 6% today. A quality name. Well-run. He really likes it.

PAST TOP PICK

(Past Top Pick on Sept 21, 2017, Up 6%) We're currently at the trend line, and it's getting hit now with U.S. trade issues. So, if there's positive news about U.S. trade, this will shoot up. He bought this at $11.

COMMENT

Oil services stocks have suffered, but it's had an uptrend for the past 12 months. It's likely it'll hold at current levels and could rise above $5.40. The sector should move up.
