DON'T BUY

The last garment business standing in Canada. Their success depends on the ability to move goods across the border. He always thought this was a story that was not going to come to a good end. Shipping from lower cost producers is just too prohibitive. He does not own it and does not see the value proposition.

BUY

An apparel manufacture. Great strong grower 2 decades +. Low cost operator. Great Management team.

TOP PICK

Maker of t-shirts and other clothes. Very low payout ratio and modest PE. He sees a 30% potential upside with a $65 target. Yield 1.4% (Analysts’ price target is $50.50)

TOP PICK

Unbranded clothing manufacturer. They have opened up a new facility. They have consolidated operations which should drive margins higher. They generate a lot of free cashflow. They have been buying back shares and increasing the dividend. Having success with the direct to consumer piece. Yield = 1.51% (Analysts’ price target is $47.26)

BUY

He likes it. He holds it. It has good price momentum. It is still reasonably priced. They are a solid operator and know how to drive prices lower. 18% return on equity and 20% price to earnings. Recent quarter was neither a beat nor a miss. The payout is low.

COMMENT

They depend on trade agreements that no have no tariffs. Tariff concerns may be over now. Well-managed company, but he's not interested in the textile sector.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

He likes it. They are a leader with operations in Central America. They now have a contract with Wal-Mart. He likes it and if the market gets nervous this where participants will go.

BUY

The stock ranks high in his system. The challenge is that cash flow growth is slowing making him cautious. The ROE remains near 19%. Overall he thinks it will do well and would buy it now with a 7% trailing stop loss.

BUY

Dropped off the radar. In the consumer sector, which it's dominated. Stock's been going sideways, but recently it's breaking out. So it looks interesting from that standpoint. This is a safe sector, and Gildan does an excellent job. Yield is 1.4%.

BUY

They are a low cost producer. They have operations in Bangladesh, Honduras, and Nicaragua. They have a good balance sheet. He likes it and will continue to do well and continue to innovate into new product lines.

COMMENT

Well-run and successful that dominates the apparel sector. Not a cheap stock, but people will always buy socks, so there's stability here vs. the market.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

They've done a great job penetrating the American market over 20 years. But in the last 5 years, they've struggled. He buys at $30 and sells over $40.

BUY

They reported a strong quarter recently and the stock surged 20%. It is well managed with good growth opportunity. The longer term growth opportunity remains good.

DON'T BUY

He would be wary of this stock. They have had a pattern of disappointing earnings, and not likely out of the woods yet. There is political unrest in Nicaragua where they operate.

DON'T BUY

Hold off right now. A lot of people lost money. The drop is a very negative sign. High volume not super significant yet. Probably more downside. Earnings next week, but this is like roulette with a 50/50 chance of going up. Even if it didn’t drop, only about a 1.7% yield, no positive uptrends, so wouldn’t buy, wouldn’t hold.
