WEAK BUY

Looking to acquire Gillette (G-N) and thinks this is a good accretive deal. It gives them 15 brands with over $1 billion US of sales. Relatively expensive. May not grow quite as fast going forward because of margin squeeze.

BUY

Usually doesn't invest in large companies. Has had rising earnings every year for a long time. Dividends have been going up every year. Very stable business. Trades at about 21 X earnings. A good Buy and Hold company.

DON'T BUY

Trades at 20/21 X earnings with a yield of about 2%. Has been pretty choppy over the last year. Gillette acquisition is pretty representative of the big pharmas style in the last few years of generating some top line growth. Expect it to just grind sideways. Not ridiculously expensive based on its pristine balance sheet, but not very exciting.

DON'T BUY

They have to start getting through the integration of Gillette and have to start to see the benefits come out of that. This was one of the very large caps that became overowned in the 90's and the ownership has been washing its way out of the system. The growth rate really hasn't been there to support the multiple that it originally had.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 31/05. Up 2%.) The Gillette acquisition is going to be very good. Very strong brands.

BUY

Hasn't gone anywhere in the last year because of the Gillette deal. It will be accretive. Getting a dividend while you wait. Good management.

BUY

Would have to have a look at the Gillette business. At the end of the day, this is a company that's going to have some pretty powerful brands. Probably will be able to take costs out of the business. On their radar screen.

TOP PICK

Gillete looks like a great acquisition of them. Going to give them great pricing power in getting shelf spacing with places like Wal Mart. This will give them an expanded line into Asia.

TOP PICK

Feels there will be a rotation to larger caps in the US. An innovative firm.

BUY

Good for long term investors. Dividend increases quite regularily. Great franchise. With the falling US$, it's easier for them to do business internationally.

DON'T BUY

Getting squeezed. Costs of their packaging is rising. Investors have made no money on Unilever, Colgate or Proctor & Gamble over the last 5 years.

DON'T BUY

Cheap. Has done really well. 1.8% dividend. Looking at 11/13% earnings per share. Has probably done most of its performance over the next 12/18 months.

PAST TOP PICK

(Past top pick Mar 19/04. Up 6%.) Still likes. Valuation is very attractive. The weakness of the US dollar works for them, not against them.

BUY

Expects margins to continue to rise. A good stock.

TOP PICK

(A top pick Jan 16/04. Up 5 1/2%.) Expect it to go a lot higher. A great company. 2% dividend.
