PARTIAL BUY

A longtime fan of this stock and their restaurants. Yesterday, they posted a pretty good quarter with a clean top and bottom line beat and higher same-store sales. But shares were dragged today by management's commentary about the choppy month of February and today's broad sell-off. The sell-off since November has been overdone. He owns a small position that he wants to build.

BUY
What is the catalyst to break its stagnancy?

One, a monster quarter, which he expects including a little lift in their Azure cloud business. MSFT is talking a lot about quantum computing, and a lot of people see them as the reserve for quantum (and be the Defense Dept.'s go-to for quantum, which he doesnt buy), but estimates in this area are low, which could be another catalyst.

PARTIAL BUY

It's neither a falling knife nor soaring rocket. It's a fantastic tech company, but EVs aren't selling around the world. It is a car company, but in the long term a tech company. Boy no more than a small position and see if it comes down.

WATCH

Their quarter disappointed. Watch their analysts' meeting and five-year plan. The new CEO is doing a good job.

SELL

He didn't like their quarter at all. It's in the penalty box and has had a slight bounce.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Are shrewd operators run by a smart CEO. Definitely buy on weakness. He wishes he knew what they own, but they seem to own everything that is great.

BUY

They just reported a beat though slower profit growth, so shares were punished. He does NOT see a crash in sales, and the numbers were in fact good.

BUY

Rallied 2.95% in today's sell-off as people sough safety in stocks that do well in a recession. Pays a 3% dividend.

COMMENT

Believes Donald Trump is likely to follow through on tariffs in order to assert dominance. As a result, is starting to build up cash in the portfolio and take defensive position. However, tariffs on energy sector will be very hard to manage from a US perspective (critical part of economy). Is surprised that the market continues to rise in the face of tariff threat. One explanation for rising stock market is the perception that Trump will cut taxes, and deregulate industry. 

TOP PICK

Excellent company that is founder led (lots of skin in the game). Expecting shortage of affordable housing to be very good for business. Ability o acquire new properties, and fix them up is very good. Rising population without rent control is good for profit margins. Zero equity raises since original IPO is incredible track record. 

TOP PICK

Applied similar royalty approach from mining sector to pharmaceutical business. Allows for new development in pharmaceutical business. Capital light business. Second listing in the world of this nature. Very cheap valuation, trading ~1.3x book value. Excellent long term prospects. 

TOP PICK

Excellent business with recurring revenue stream. Waste management business mostly based in Western Canada. Very stable business. Trading at a discounted valuation from peers. Expecting lots of growth going forward. 

HOLD

World leader in flight simulation business. Strong company with recent performance in the stock market. Latest quarter has had a bit of a slowdown on sales, but overall the business is strong. Evolution of new pilots that will require new training will be good for business. Expecting high single digit revenue growth. Would recommend holding. 

BUY

One of the largest holdings in the portfolio. Unexpected resignation of the CEO has been hard on the business. Recent Q3 earnings were strong. New CEO search are expected to be announced soon. Cheap valuation at current price. Will continue to own. 

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Current share price reflecting value of business much better than during the pandemic. Attendance numbers continue to remain flat even with new steaming services. Expecting single digit growth of revenue. Brand name is very strong with large share of market. Cinema experience is still very good.
