Q: If one was willing to accept the smaller cap size risk and the much lower yield, could you endorse a switch from MG to DOO to stay (technically at least) in the same sector in the hopes of realizing a higher total return in the long run (5-10 years)? When I look at the history, Magna is about where it was 7 or 8 years ago, and DOO is up about 4 fold. I realize the past doesn’t predict the future, but still…..
5i Research Answer:
Yes we think such a switch would be profitable. DOO is smaller, but still a $7.7B company and good earnings growth is expected.
