PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 16/08. Down 27% but up 21.5% if you sold in May as he suggested.) Canadian market has formed a nice little base pattern so there is good reason to believe that technicals will take us to new highs. Current target is $17 by April when you Sell.
COMMENT
S&P TSE 60. Use for long-term, low-cost Canadian equity exposure. You could also consider Claymore Cdn Fundamental (CRQ-T).
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) You can own this thing now.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 16/08 to be Sold May 20/08. Up 18%.) Classic seasonal play. Buy when it snows, Sell when it goes.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 27/07. Down 23%.) Exited in May with a 15% profit. Now is the time to Buy.
BUY
In times of uncertainty, large caps tend to outperform the mid and smaller issues. Relatively safe place to be. Ultimately, when the market stabilizes and gets into a bull market trend (probably 2009 or 2010) you will want to be in the mid and smaller cap issues.
TRADE
It’s time to take a broader exposure in ETFs. Feels we are going to be in a global recession.
COMMENT
Pure free floating on the S&P/TSX 60 index (Canadian Large Cap). Not capped like XIC-T. Long term he likes XIC better because of the capping.
BUY
(Caller - Suggesting shorting so that he does not get 2X the leverage and 2X the risk.) Depends on how long a short position you want to hold. If you are looking at a short term short he would suggest BetaPro S&P/TSX 60 Bear E.T.F. (HXD-T) which would be an alternative to this one. This one is a great product, lowest cost equity fund out there. Hard to beat if you want to get short-term exposure or long-term exposure to the equity market.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 27/07. Up 0.9%.) Seasonal play for the overall Canadian market is Oct through to April. Wait for technical indications of a bottom, 15 days of support and short-term momentum indicators.
TOP PICK
Basically the Canadian market. Period of seasonal strength is from the end of Sept until April. Delay any purchases until the end of September. Chart shows a long support level but now has a bounce. Big spread between the support and the top in July, ind
PAST TOP PICK
Seasonal strength from the end of September to the end of March, but it's been extended. (Sell on exit points.)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 17/06. Up 14.5%.) Have reached the end of the seasonal strength, which runs from the end of September to the end of March. Waiting for a technical signal for a Sell.
COMMENT
ETF’s are good adjuncts for investors that want to capture market movements and diversify risks. He only looks at individual stocks, not the market as a whole. If you own, you might take some profits.
SELL
Breakdown of the Canadian market shows 35% in financials, which are very high, 45% in resources, which will have a difficult time as the global economy, slows. If you own, would consider moving out, perhaps offshore.
