Q: Hi did I miss news on the auto sector? These stocks are up a lot suddenly. We're they just oversold or is there some data regarding "peak auto"? If so, then this strength could spread to XTC and PIH?

Thanks

Linamar Corporation (LNR $88.58)

Martinrea International Inc. (MRE $9.90)
-
Magna International Inc. (MG $73.80)
Q: Hi,
Why is MRE trading at only 5 or 6 times earnings, a lot lower than
MG and LNR (Which, themselves, are reasonably valued).
If MRE a higher risk/reward buy than MG or LNR?
Thanks,

Q: 5I Team, please indicate your preference between: LNR/MRE & POW/PWF.

Many Thanks!
Q: Hi team, Has your outlook on Linamar shifted since the US election? Do you still see a medium or long term upside? I am about 35% down and concerned that it really might not come back. Thanks!
Q: Is Linamar a better buy than Magna today? Both companies did well for the quarter with LNR showing a better revenue growth over the last 4-6 quarters. The valuation is cheaper and while Magna is much larger, LNR is large on an absolute basis as well. Does npot the upside from here look better for Linamar?
Q: LNR is down quite a bit today after the quarterly release. Your opinion of the quarterly and the resultant price drop please. The results looked OK to me - what am I missing? Buying opportunity or?
Q: I have a question about 932
Hello 5i:
in response to a question on MG/LNR, in, I believe August, you said "MG has a solid balance sheet and a very cheap valuation. Recent earnings were solid and we would consider the sector fairly attractive right now overall." From everything I can read, it appears that LNR has a substantially lower valuation than MG. Am I missing something?
Can you elaborate on LNR, and discuss why you think MG has a lower valuation.
thanks

Q: Do all above companies fall under Industrial? My total weight is 13% Is this too high? I feel that I have too many companies in this sector and may be better to have only 4-5? STN and WSP are similar so would it be better to sell one of these and add to the names that are listed. I am also thinking of selling ET and taking the proceeds to add to the other names now leaving me with 5. Is this a good approach?
Thanks

Q: Do the financials, notions of economies of scale and competition, street talk, etc lead you folks to believe that Magna may have any appetite to takeover/merge with Linamar?

Q: Hi, I am a value investor and note that Auto parts makers are trading at historically low multiples even though earnings growth appears intact. Can I have your favorite of MG, LNR and MRE with respect to the best 18 month to 3 year return.
Q: ave 5% in each corp and have losses of 25% and 35% respectively. I have been patient but wonder if I should sell one half of each and buy more ZZZ and KXS, in their place.
Thanks for your assistance..

Q: Another brutal day for Linamar on the markets. On 6/28 you advised it was looking "interesting". Does it look even more interesting today? I have a minor position taken about 90 days ago and I hate to catch a falling knife but my hands are already bloody...think its wise to expose even more skin?

Q: My question is about "peak auto". I have not yet read any reliable source that shows auto sales heading for a slump. In your experience, have you seen "cheap" large caps like Magna fall 40% based on a "guess" that was repeated enough times in the media to convince everyone, a guess that ended up being wrong? It's hard to believe all this selling is based only on a guess about a "top". I am not seeing XTC or LNR executives buy their stock. At 6.5 times earnings, you'd think they would buy if they their EPS was projected to be maintained over the next 3 quarters!
Q: Just wonder if there are any news that trigger LNR to fall another 4% today while the general market is rebounding, including other auto part companies. Were there any broker downgrades?
Q: You've mentioned MG as a good buying opportunity, do you feel similar about LNR? Does it also have Europe exposure?
thanks,
Paul

Q: Magna and Linamar are down $25,and $33 in one year. Are things that bad? Are they cheap now? Would you think it is time to start buying a 1 percent position in each since they are good companies anti have no idea where the bottom price is or do these prices look close to a bottom?
