Rotation from "Mag 7" into small cap stocks happening in USA & Canada. Institutions are moving into Canadian small cap stocks, which have started to out-perform. Expecting this trend to continue. Finding small cap stocks that are setup for 30%-40% gains (trading at single digit valuations). Traditional valuation metrics apply, but larger pools of capital usually don't invest in smaller companies. Lower interest rates should be helpful to small cap stocks (less expensive to service leverage).
Most recent addition to portfolio. Believes lots of opportunity in energy services. Active in well construction (cheaper & safer). Attracted to the new product line that will offer recurring revenues. Expecting a re-rate on the stock price as a result. Pristine balance sheet, good management. Expecting further share price appreciation.
Recent addition into portfolio. Stock not as cyclical as perceived. Backlog of work projects very good. Work and revenue is guaranteed from the customers. Recent earning announcements very strong. Recent dividend increase by 50% very strong. Company growing to a size where larger investors start to invest.
Excellent company with strong prospects. Will continue to own. Founder led, with lots of skin in the game. Demand of housing expected to keep growing. Does not lose any sleep over company. Mid-market apartments also continue to grow. No rent control in Western Canada - helps increase profits. Lots of "blue sky" to keep growing.
He sold it because of problems with one of their engines. That was a mistake. They solved that issue and demand for defence remains. A good company.
