COMMENT

A Comment -- General Comments From an Expert(A Commentary)

Sep 10, 2019
Canadian small/mid-caps are neglected and undervalued, and could be acquired by private equity, while ETFs inflate large caps. Also, some tech stocks like Uber are going public at ridiculous valuations--the bubble is now bursting with WeWork.

DON'T BUY

Diversified Royalty Corp(DIV.TO)

Sep 10, 2019
He doesn't follow it, but all the royalty trusts are not stocks he buys. Maybe it's good for the income. DIV has some good businesses like Mr. Lube, but trusts are difficult to value. For income investors. Careful not to overpay trusts.

Rogers Sugar Inc(RSI.TO)

Sep 10, 2019
The sugar business is stable; it's a duopoly in Canada, though it's facing pushback from health advocates. Also, China may boycott maple syrup, so that's a challenge. Sugar is very low growth. The dividend is safe.

Savaria Corp(SIS.TO)

Sep 10, 2019
He sold a lot of this in the high-teens when the valuation got ahead of itself. He wants to buy back, but first needs to see organic growth in stair lifts, for example. SIS also needs to better integrate acquisitions. But he likes the managers and this sector. Insiders just bought more share and increased the dividend.

Swiss Water Decaffeinated Coffee Inc(SWP.TO)

Sep 10, 2019
SWP is one of the few companies in the world to decaf coffee using a chemical process. A few competitors have shut down. Volumes are growing nicely and they are improving their margins. They are completing a Vancouver plant this year, which will ramp up volumes in coming quarters. Pays a good dividend as you wait.

COMMENT

Lightspeed Commerce Inc(LSPD.TO)

Sep 10, 2019

Careful with analysts price targets when a stock is soaring up and up, like LSPD. The valuation is rich with all money-losing tech companies, like Uber. LSPD is likely doing better, but has a very high valuation. This will be very volatile--careful. This is a solid company, but too expensive for him.

He likes the LNG space, and KEY has good assets in good areas. Pays a very good dividend as they grow these projects. A definite buy, but be patient with its capital appreciation. Good managers.

A cyclical business, though RUS has survived many down cycles. Well-managed company. Be prepared for the dividend to be cut in tough times and to rise when it's good.

Altus Group(AIF.TO)

A former top pick. It's had a nice run this year. It's a real estate service company transforming into a tech, the Bloomberg of real estate, that's growing by double-digits. A good one to hold for the long run. Good managers.

Exchange Income(EIF.TO)

He met the company last year. Similar to DIV-T, comprised of many businesses, and you buy this for the dividend. There are some good businesses here, but valuing those companies can be difficult. Good for dividend investors.

PAST TOP PICK

Centric Health(CHH.TO)

Sep 10, 2019
(A Top Pick Sep 24/18, Down 68%) He still likes it. It's the biggest specialty pharma distributor of meds to seniors residences in Canada. The stock got hammered recently, because they didn't get the price the market expected for selling the surgery clinics (the deal closes Sept. 30). Still, they will pay down a lot of debt with this deal. The new CEO has done a fantastic job by cutting costs and increasing gross margins, but the market is ignoring this. Their EBITDA is growing. When the sale closes, he'll buy more stock.

Badger Daylighting(BDGI.TO)

Sep 10, 2019
(A Top Pick Sep 24/18, Up 51%) Short-sellers were spreading rumours about it, and he's long defended Badger. It now has the valuation it deserves. It's still reasonably priced. Well-managed with a huge organic runway of growth ahead. They're buying back a lot of shares.

PAST TOP PICK

Grande West Transportation Group(BUS.V)

Sep 10, 2019
(A Top Pick Sep 24/18, Down 66%) The benefitted a lot a few years ago from selling their bus to the Canadian public transit market and the US private market. That bus was durable and fuel-efficient and beating competition; big parts of it are made in China. So, when the US launched the trade war, it hurt BUS-X. BUS has found a US partner now, but this makes the sales cycle much longer. That's why he sold.

Waste Connections(WCN.TO)

Sep 10, 2019
A very expensive stock. It's grown by acquisition with some organic growth. Too rich for him. There is some cyclicality, as during the Recession, with less garbage produced, and there's an environmental push for less garbage. Well-managed, though, and in a good business.
