TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

This Canadian aerospace manufacturing company has formed broad agreements recently with India and Korea.  Recently reported earnings showed a 70% increase in quarterly income, allowing cash reserves to grow while debt was retired and shares bought back.  It trades at 24x earnings and 1.2x book.  Its dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $13, looking to achieve $21 -- upside over 22%.  Yield 1.1%

(Analysts’ price target is $21.00)

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 05/25, Down 6.5%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with SNY has triggered its stop at $47.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.  

COMMENT
Canada's GDP within the tariff spectrum.

Working out better than expected. But it'll be a bit of a tough road as time goes on. A lot of what Canada does and sells is under pressure and likely to remain that way for some time. 

Tomorrow's the deadline, and he doesn't think we'll have a new deal. Get used to it ;)  Trump seems adamant that there will be no extension, and he seems to be taking a pretty tough stand on Canada.

COMMENT
Uncertainty.

Definitely uncertainty out there, which is surprising when you see that markets are at all-time highs in both Canada and the US. 

But he looks at the market long distance from an options perspective. So he likes the uncertainty, as it keeps both options prices and implied volatility higher.

COMMENT
Where's the optimism coming from?

He couldn't tell you. His firm has maintained pretty cautious optimism. Businesses have to adapt to whatever the market throws at them. Investors have been more optimistic than he would have thought.

He's out there still trying to find value and maintain the positions that haven't gotten too extended.

TRADE
Good run, about 6% of a portfolio.

Seems to have grown to a bigger piece of the portfolio than the investor is comfortable with. Doesn't have too strong an opinion on this particular stock. If you want to trim, a great way is to sell a covered call -- you sell somebody the right to buy the stock from you at a higher price. 

With shares right now around $194, you can sell a September $200 call for about $4.50. If the stock doesn't go up, then you end up just hanging on to your stock.

COMMENT
Strategy: Sell a call in the money for a stock that's going ex-dividend. After that date, share price will go down. So the call option you sold should go down in price. When you buy back the call, you make a profit.

If you own this name and you're comfortable selling it at this level, as you think it's not going to go up from here and may even go down, then this seems like an OK strategy. 

For him, he typically likes to leave a bit of upside between where the stock's trading and where he sells the call. 

If you look at the Canadian banks, they're pretty stable businesses. Volatility's not as high, so neither are the options premiums. Selling something closer to the money, or even in the money, can make sense. You're really riding a fine line that what you expect is going to happen actually does over a short period. That's pretty hard to predict, so he'd leave a little bit offside.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Mag 7.

He wants companies that are trading at attractive valuations. PE is not the be all and end all, but it's definitely where he starts his analysis. Both META and MSFT had pretty good numbers this quarter and the stocks are doing well today. If you plan to own all of them and want to buy more, then buy the ones trading at cheaper valuations. 

BUY

Great business. Has AWS, which is a huge piece of the business. Also direct-to-consumer, so that part continues to grow in this time of inflation. Valuation is not stretched, so he'd be looking at this one among the Mag 7.
