Q: Morning 5i,
The company description for SJ says that the utility poles division brings in the most revenue of any division. Where I live there's recently been a substantial amount of new road work - the SW Calgary ring road extension - and for the miles and miles of new road all one can see are miles and miles of metal utility poles, which I assume SJ did not fabricate or supply.
Is SJ's main revenue producing division in danger of quickly becoming obsolete in the market place, and if that's too pessimistic an outlook is it at the least giving up substantial market share to whoever is providing the metal poles? (And who might that be?)
Thanks,
Peter

Q: Can you tell me your thoughts about the long term prospect for this company and why do you think it has been such a weak performer over the last month? Do you think it's growth has peaked? I've held this since 2014 and added a bit more in 2015 for an average entry price of around $32.00. Should I hold or sell?

If I was to replace this company in my RRSP could you give me three alternate companies in the material sector I should look into as possibilities for long time hold, hopefully with dividend and growth prospects?

Q: Hello,

A long time ago, Peter was on Market call and he mentioned a few criteria, which in his books, would make a stock a recommendation.
And then as one of the top picks, which met all those criteria, was STN.
Out of all those criteria, I remember:
1) a company had no dividend and just introduced one;
2) significant insider holding/buying.
3) no debt.

Could you please let me know if the criteria I listed above is correct + if there were other criteria as well?
Also, could you please recommend a few companies in both Canada and in US, which met all those criteria (relatively) recently?
It would be really appreciated companies from different industries/sectors please.

Thank you

Q: The new CEO has been in place for about 18 months now and the latest financial reports were solid. While you never "disowned" the stock it was dropped from the portfolio. Would you be a buyer of this stock now, anticipating growth in lumber in particular as well as M&A activity or is it too soon yet to judge this new exec team?

Appreciate your insight.
