COMMENT
Post U.S. elections.

A lot of people were surprised with the outcome, especially that they took both sides of the house. According to history, a republican sweep has been better than average for the markets. It is a pro-growth, pro-individual agenda with lower individual and corporate taxes. This is leading the market to recalculate estimates on earnings and expectations. 

COMMENT

We saw a weaker week following a very strong week, so the honeymoon period did not last too long. It will probably persist into the new year, for some technical reasons as well as people won't be too quick to sell with hopes of favourable changes to capital gains legislation. It's seasonally a good time of the year. There is a certain degree of stealing from the future. Valuations are on the higher ranges of normalized ranges. This is demanding on the market, needs stronger corporate earnings, favourable inflation and other economic trends. 

COMMENT
Outlook 2025.

He would like to see a tempered market with average returns. Doesn't think that there is any reason, outside of a shock eg geopolitical shock, that there is a reason for the markets to be negative. However, he does not like runaway momentum markets. Wants a quiet, normal year next year.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 24/23, Up 60%)

Electrical components are driving the business. Has done very well. The hype is from the electrical side and AI/data centres. Sold it. Feels it is stretched on the valuation side. Trading at 33x earnings. Expectations for next year and the following year are in the 10% range. Not enough growth versus current price. 

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 24/23, Up 38%)

Had a bit of a speed bump a couple years ago with quick CEO successions. Last couple of years have been good. Last earnings report was not great. Revenues missed. Could be due to project decisions were put on hold for the elections due to uncertainty. Watching to make sure it gets back on track. Some concerns but it is a good quality company.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 24/23, Up 33%)

Has owned for a while, came to own it when they acquired a company called Annexter, which was part of their small cap portfolio. Nuts of bolt company with 50,000 suppliers in their supply change. A distributor. Everybody uses their products. Had a solid report. Making great inroads in the margin expansion. Purchased an Australian company, Pope, that is accretive. Likes it here. 

TOP PICK

A specialty school bus maker. 47% of school buses are 11 years old or older. An alternative fuel bus maker: propane, hydrogen, electric and gas. Trades at 12x earnings. Things they will make $3 a share next year. The recent pullback is probably a knee-jerk reaction from the Trump election.  The issue has bipartisan support however, so not worried about it. 

(Analysts’ price target is $56.00)
TOP PICK

An aerospace and defence aspect to it. There is interest due to geopolitics (eg. Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan). The safety of the aerospace aspect of this business is a good thing to have. Good growth in this area. New plane adoption is ramping up, due to fuel efficiency making money for airlines. Had a stumble a number of years ago due to discovery of contaminants in their production. They recovered from it. Knows that markets tend to forgive mis-steps if there is a constructive solution. 

(Analysts’ price target is $132.95)
