COMMENT
The hard part for investors is that we're not viral experts, but some experts have said that the coronavirus will peak in the spring and subside when the hot weather of summer. Also, China's measures to contain it are helping. Overall, things look good for stocks. The rally won't be derailed. He sees no end to the bull run in tech, his favourite sector. He prefers American over Canadian stocks. He's been all-in America (MSFT, Amazon) in the past 5 years. The US economy looks better than the Canadian, but there are winning stocks in Canada.

BUY
Alaris Royalty Corp
3-year outlook A big holding and a great company. Their holdings are in the U.S. based on a preferred equity structure, but risks lie on the companies' revenues shrinking. They had a little bit of a miss in 2017-8, but it's recovered there. Their companies are performing better. The dividend is 7.2% which he thinks is not only safe, but would grow.
Financial Services
WEAK BUY
Exxon Mobil

A play on global oil. The coronavirus has taken out 20% demand because of China, but there will be a bounce-back in oil. Global oil has been a tough slog for the last 5 years. You can probably buy it and collect a nice dividend, but BP has a better payout. Don't expect much capital appreciation.

COMMENT
Block Inc

Their software lets retailers take payments, manager inventory and now for consumers a cash app including peer-to-peer transfers. SQ is pricey, but boasts 25% revenue growth--doing well in developing software. Trades at 14x current revenue. If they can execute on their cash app, SQ can move higher. But he prefers Mastercard in the US payments space.

Technology
PARTIAL BUY
Microsoft Corp

His 2nd-largest holding. It's been on a tear in the past month. Pick away slowly at these high levels. Cloud computing is driving their growth. MSFT and Amazon are a two-horse race in the cloud that will continue for at least 5 years. A long-term buy.

computer software / processing
BUY
Stryker Corp.
Medical devices are a good play on aging US demographics. SYK recently merged with a smaller company to consolidate their hips and knees products. He owns its peers including Boston Scientific, but the whole space is enjoying a nice upside. You can buy SYK.
biotechnology / pharmaceutical
WATCH
BlackBerry
Looks like they turned the corner in their last quarter after investors have punished them for revenues declining in 2019. Peers have grown faster, but BB is starting to look attractive. Look for a few more quarters of turnaround as they move more into cybersecurity. There's potential for mulitple expansion; it trades at 2.5x revenue vs. peers at 6-7x. You can start to pick away at it, but he'd rather watch a few quarters.
electrical / electronic
BUY
Suncor Energy Inc

Suncor vs. Pembina Investor sentiment for oil is very weak, but Suncor is among the better performers in the last decade because their Oil Sands assets have such a long life that they don't have to keep investing money each year to maintain that production. Ultimately, Canada needs to see takeaway capacity to improve. He owns Pembina which is not as directly effected by the oil price. Suncor is an oil play; Pembina is an income play. Either one is fine.

Nutrien Ltd.
A cyclical stock hit by the coronavirus virus (less Chinese demand). This'll do well if agriculture bounces back. Stick with this if you are long term like he is (he doesn't trade) where he builds a position slowly and averages down. He doesn't invest in commodities much.
agriculture
BUY
Enbridge
Dividend growth to come? It's one of his larger holdings. He likes the 6% yield. ENB plans to grow the dividend 5-10%. They've enjoyed regulatory approval in pipelines which is an upside. He's chipping away at it. Still likes it.
oil / gas pipelines
DON'T BUY
Chorus Aviation Inc

He trimmed at $8. They extended their Air Canada contract, but took a cut from total income they'd receive, thus reducing cash flow from that contract every year. That's the trade-off. CHR is offsetting that lost revenue with an aircraft leasing business which is a little riskier. Not his first choice in putting new new money.

PAST TOP PICK
Aritzia Inc.
(A Top Pick Feb 26/19, Up 53%) One of his favourite stocks. Most of the stock movement has happened in the last 3 months after they released their report. It's been mostly multiple expansion; you haven't seen earnings move up. 12 months ago it was a cheap stock, and is now appropriately priced. They can expand to 100 stores in the US, up from 27, and ultimately 200. Lots of runway. Great positioning in "affordable luxury" fashion.
specialty stores
PAST TOP PICK
Spin Master Corp
(A Top Pick Feb 26/19, Down 30%) It's disappointing. The Toys R Us bankruptcy hit the sector harder than expected; peers like Target aren't as good as selling toys as Toys R Us. TOY has net cash and great balance sheet, though, and remains innovative with a good pipeline of toys. He's waiting to average down.

PAST TOP PICK
Netflix Inc.
(A Top Pick Feb 26/19, Up 3%) It's always been volatile. He bought at $190 and increases his weighting whenever there's a dip. It's roared back lately. Several companies will share the streaming space and Netflix will be right there. Videogames, ads and user content are possible future avenues of revenue.

HOLD
WSP Global Inc.
A great stock, but he's only looked at closely last year. It trades at a premium to its peers, but it executes on growth by acquiring new companies. No reason to sell it. Just hang onto it. This growth by acquisition story can keep running. Keep riding it.
