Q: Hi Peter and the 5i Team,
John Heinzl on June 20 rated EMP.A as a “star” in his Stars and Dogs column in the Globe & Mail. We recently purchased a smallish amount in Empire EMP.A to round out our Consumer Defensive holdings which include COST, DOL, XST, and L.
As far as Metro MRU is concerned, it’s held in XST which also contains some of the other smaller firms in the sector.
Do you believe that the troubled takeover of Safeway by Empire several years ago is now a ‘thing of the past’, making Empire a reasonable investment, given its successful takeover of Farm Boy as well as its 51% share of Longos? Both Farm Boy and Longos are quite busy in our Oakville location.
Thanks as always for your insight. Happy Canada Day to all at 5i as well as my fellow 5i members!
