BUY

Respects its business. If valuation swung in its favour, he'd look to add. Issues last quarter when margins and earnings were much lower than anticipated. Inflation challenges, plus more exposed to Europe. Good time to get in given increase in auto production over next 2 years. His choice in the sector is LNR. 

PARTIAL BUY

A great company, but shares plunged in February after they issued weak guidance and numbers. The current $70 price is resistance, so you can buy a partial position and see what happens. Certainly enter around $65.

DON'T BUY

Better off owning suppliers rather than OEM auto companies. Difficult to transition from combustion to electric. Tough to keep both sides going. Massive buildup on the EV side will help, but combustion provides the cash. Cheap for a reason. A trade at best, not for the long term.

BUY

He does think there's some benefit in auto parts/repair. These companies are better value and have more upside. Interest rates will be challenging for a bigger purchase like a car. People who buy cars also tend to have mortgages. That's why he favours parts companies over the auto makers.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

High quality. International company. A top 3 supplier of auto parts globally. Historically, inexpensive. It has been volatile. Microchip shortages plus higher interest rates impacting sales. Hold. On a pullback to around $75, add to your position. Nice dividend, well managed.

DON'T BUY
EVs A high-fixed cost company, so you need a lot of scale, which Magna has. The transition to EVs means MG is in a great space to build those parts. Is concerned about their high-fixed costs and the amount of competition in EVs. The car sector will come down, though, and not be good for Magna.
DON'T BUY
Very cheap on earnings. Looks like the trajectory is going to be tremendous. Low margin business, so he doesn't care for it, especially if the economy turns over. Too cyclical for him. Not tied to EVs yet. Nice dividend yield.
BUY
It's trading below 9x PE and he models 4-5% growth. They just announced an acquisition today, which will help their technological development. Dilutive short-term, but beneficial long-term. Likes Magna in the car space.
COMMENT
The auto parts industry is becoming interesting. He likes Magna and Linamar, which he owns. There are headwinds with a possible recession and rising rates. 40% of Magna's business is in Europe where inflation is rising faster than here. They will do well in the long run so you could buy if you have a 5 year horizon but wait if buying for the short term.
BUY
High quality, a Canadian industrial champion. International. Issues from supply chains and microchips. Attractive multiple. High ROE, good management and balance sheet. Nice dividend yield. Good buy here for a long-term hold.
WEAK BUY
Fairly valued, decent upside potential. Decent balance sheet. Small yield of 2.4% is better than nothing. Intrinsic value has drifted off. Lots of companies getting into EV, but are they going to make money?
WEAK BUY
Auto parts might finally be waking up. Supply-side issues may be dissipating. Interesting at these levels. He doesn't own yet, but could in the near future.
DON'T BUY
He doesn't like this type of business. He owns CPRT instead.
BUY
He likes the car stocks. This is not the typical downturn now; inventories are not bloated as they are in other downturn and production levels remain firm despite the shortage of computer chips. Trades around a cheap 8x earnings and 3x cash flow. They can and will serve EVs as well as gas cars.
WATCH
Well-run and ready for the transition to EVs. But don't buy now. It's a deep cyclical stock. See Linamar's warning today of weakening production.
