PAST TOP PICK

Toronto-Dominion Bank(TD.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
(A Top Pick Sep 07/17, Up 16%) Loves their US operations, which are really starting to pay off. Sold off recently along with the rest. Canadian banks can compete successfully in the US.

Vermilion Energy Inc(VET.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
(A Top Pick Sep 08/17, Down 12%) Likes this stock because it's essentially a European operation with a Canadian side, so it's a safer market. Good dividend, over 8%. Energy stocks have a big black cloud over them, and people don't realize they're trading at well below book value.

iShares N.A. Technology ETF(IGM)

Nov 30, 2018
(A Top Pick Sep 07/17, Up 24%) Can't buy some of these stocks in Canada. Price has come off dramatically, and it's quite liquid. The big tech companies are world-class, and their growth represents a good place to be.

Pembina Pipeline Corp(PPL.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
Same as IPL, tied in to local transportation. Has outperformed a lot of the other Alberta energy stocks. It's a utility, so dividend is quite safe. Continues to grow. Growth in oil and gas in Alberta is not dead.

COMMENT

Crescent Point Energy Corp(CPG.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
Dividend safe? The black cloud over the industry affects this company, everybody loves to hate it. Last quarter was OK. This quarter we'll see if they've hedged some of their sales. Doesn't believe oil will stay this low for long, we'll be back to $50-60, even $70. Dividend is OK, though he can't guarantee it, but the cash flow supports the dividend. Yield is above 9%.

BCE Inc.(BCE.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
Sold off and has moved counter-market in the last little while. Has always liked the stock, a good solid stock to have in your portfolio. Very competent management, safe dividend, a sector that will grow with the country. Holds it as a cash flow generator. Adds to it when it's down in the cycle, or takes profits when it gets too big in the portfolio. A core holding.

Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce(CM.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
Good entry point or wait? Stock used to be at the bottom of the heap, and then they did some very good things and has come back. No problem with the dividend, the quarter was an anomaly. You might want to wait before putting money in. He has great faith in the Canadian banks and how they operate worldwide. Yield is 4.9%.

BMO Equal Weight US Banks ETF(ZBK.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
Looked at it, but the Canadian banks looked better. Get the BMO Canadian bank ETF instead. Be cautious about jumping into the US banking side. Canadian dollar could perk up and that would offset any advantage to being in the US. He'd rather stay in his own backyard that he knows. Canadian banks are superior in a lot of ways to virtually all the US banks.

Power Corp(POW.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
Disappointing. Mutual fund sector is being blown out of the water by ETFs because of the fee structure. Basic income flow is going to be a problem in the near future. They won't go out of business, but he doesn't see the market performance or the yield improving. Yield is 5.8%.

Yamana Gold Inc.(YRI.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
Neutral on gold these days. You invest when inflation rears its head as with some of these tariffs, but in the meantime, these stocks aren't going anywhere. Margins are being squeezed, and its debt has grown so that it's a cause for concern. Don't buy into commodity stocks right now, until we see global improvement, especially with China. Risk is too high. If you hold it, put your money somewhere else.

Dropped off the radar. In the consumer sector, which it's dominated. Stock's been going sideways, but recently it's breaking out. So it looks interesting from that standpoint. This is a safe sector, and Gildan does an excellent job. Yield is 1.4%.

Bank of Nova Scotia(BNS.TO)

Nov 30, 2018
This bank has the skills to operate in growth areas like the Caribbean and Central America that are superior to most of North America. NAFTA is going to be positive for Mexico, where BNS is the second largest bank. Recently got out of problem areas in Caribbean. Expanded into South America, and management has lots of experience. Stock is extremely cheap, so it's the best buy right now. Yield is 4.7%. (Analysts’ price target is $82.54)

Apple Inc(AAPL)

Nov 30, 2018
Picked it because the multiple is quite reasonable at a bit over 13x forward earnings. Investors got over-excited about cell phone sales. Huge cash flow, so they've got room to increase the dividend. They're in a growth sector that will continue to grow. A buy and hold stock. Yield is 1.6%. (Analysts’ price target is $226.71)

COMMENT

The recent correction.(A Commentary)

Nov 30, 2018
The recent correction. We're at the bottom of this particular correction. Corrections are a standard part of markets, and this one has less justification than most. The fundamentals of inflation, unemployment and corporate profits all look good.
