You can start buying Enbridge now,. ENB has rallied over 38% in the past year, outpacing even Royal Bank and nearly doubling the pace of the TSX. Enbridge currently trades at 21.77x PE, compared to around 16x a year ago, but nowhere near the post-Covid peak of 38.62x on March 31, 2023.

Can a stock that's rallied 36% in the past year be considered a dark horse? IBM can. It outpaced the higher-profile Apple, which climbed 25.5% in the last 12 months and Alphabet by 3%. What is IBM doing right? Software. It's shed its old identity as a stodgy hardware company and tilted hard into software. True, shares dipped last October when they missed their numbers in the consulting segment, but shares jumped this week from $228 to $258 after they reported.

Despite its expected growth, National remains cheap. It trades at 12.16x PE, compared to TD's 17.6x and Royal's 15.82x. True, NA's 3.13% dividend yield falls short of, say, BMO's 4.62%, but the projected growth makes up for this. Another plus is that National has no exposure to office real estate in the U.S., and only 8% exposure in commercial real estate there. Most of the bank's assets and operations lie in Canada. NA-T is a buy and hold.

Following better than expected Q4 earnings, we again reiterate DAL as a TOP PICK.  EPS growth was 45% over the year and the partnership with AMEX added another $2 billion to the bottom line.  Management expects 10% earnings growth in 2025 as premium routes allow margins to continue to grow.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $54) to $60, looking to achieve $83 — upside potential of 19%.  Yield 0.7%

The Greece based container ship company trades under 2x earnings, under book value and supports a ROE of 25%.  We like that cash reserves are growing, while shares are bought back.  The healthy dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $17, looking to achieve $30 — upside potential of 36%.  Yield 7.2%

This operator of midsized tankers used for refined petroleum and chemicals has reduced its daily cost of operations by 30% to deal with tight market conditions.  This has allowed the company to generate growth in cash reserves, while retiring debt.  The healthy dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 40% of cash flow.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $8.50, looking to achieve $17.00 — upside potential of 41%.  Yield 8.6%
