COMMENT

Run big data centers that mine crypto currency. Its chart looks like Bitcoin. It is in a descending triangle. If it breaks below support, it would reflect badly on it.

WATCH

They are going through a restructuring. The metrics look really good but you are buying into a transition. You don’t know when it is going to stop. If it gets above $20 it would be some positive momentum. It is in its period of seasonal strength.

BUY

They tend to do well this time of the year. We saw it come down. This is common right now. He is favourable for this one.

HOLD

Earnings got hit hard because of direct TV subscriptions going down. It will probably settle down. It is starting to form a base after coming down quite a bit. This is not the time of year to be in something like this. He does not see this stock performing extremely well over the next year.

BUY

The chips have been creamed. We are probably close to the end of the cycle. TI as well as AMG got hit. INTC-Q had manufacturing issues with 10 nm circuits. We are in the time period when chips manufacturers can do well. We could see a run.

WAIT

It has moved up. There has not been a major resistance level for it to break through. It is a showme story, though. Wait for it to get through $6 before getting in.

BUY

It's not time to give up. Lumber prices have been falling just like the stock. If you take a look at housing construction, the chart looks just like this. This is the seasonal period when all these sectors tend to pick up. This is a good opportunity.

TOP PICK

It is a seasonal time to be in this sector. Consumer staples were on fire up until today. People are rushing for the defensives. The Market is not sure about tech, industrials and materials. This is a good time to step in. It will give you US$ exposure.

TOP PICK

Black Friday is the 23rd. We are seeing positive performance in the retail sector.

TOP PICK

It is a play on the US economy. The US economy is doing quite well. This is their busy time. You are trying to get in before all the other investors. Get out about December 8th.

COMMENT

Market. Not uncommon this late in the cycle to see this type of volatility. Gives investors an opportunity to buy some of the stocks that were hit hard. Seeing a shift from tech into utilities and more defensive names. He doesn’t see a case for recession until 2020. He is long on equities, probably more in growth and cyclical. TSX is down 8% year to date. We have lost a little competitiveness. There are still a lot of good companies in Canada whether it is financials or utilities. Was probably a good year to hold more cash. If you are a long term investment, it is just a blip on what should be a longer term up.

DON'T BUY

Likely would not own it right now. He doesn’t think the Canadian economy is quite as strong as what the government is saying. He expects oil prices to rise which means higher input costs. However there are better places to put your money. Nothing wrong with the company.

WEAK BUY

Is tied to housing starts and home prices. Possibly a combination of NAFTA and slower housing starts in the US, has caused it to come down significantly. Probably a good time to look at it at these levels. Is a high risk stock. There is potential to risk capital with this name.

BUY

He likes this but prefers Enbridge or Pembina. It is almost like a utility. You are getting a decent dividend and should see some capital appreciation. Big question is what does the future hold. Difficult to get approvals on projects. He expects oil differentials to more normalize. This is a decent name.

DON'T BUY

The market does not give them value for their assets and therefore the stock normally trades below its net asset value. The dividend yield is strong. The space is strong. He would look more at Manulife or Sunlife. The yield is very safe. Does not expect major upside in the stock price.
