| TOP PICK | 60.470 | Mark Grammer | Trades at about a 10% discount to the sector. Has had premium performance over the last few years. Each quarter the management comes through and delivers stable, steady double-digit growth. In automation side and their aerospace business is doing extremely well. Trading at only 13X earnings. | 2012-05-03 | |
| HOLD | 59.000 | Gordon Reid | Likes it. It has hit his screens over the last few months. Operate around the world and do a very good job, priced very reasonably. UTS would be an alternative. | 2012-02-15 | |
| PARTIAL SELL | 57.280 | Ross Healy | When it gets up to about 4X Book, where it is now, that tends to be it. | 2011-07-12 | |
| SELL | 55.920 | Don Vialoux | Partly industrial and partly technology but more technology. Technology companies do very well usually from 1st week in October until the 2nd week in January when the Consumer Electronic Show (CSE) is held. The end of seasonal strength is now over so you should take profits. | 2011-01-27 | |
| Comment | 48.550 | Kevin O'Leary | A hidden gem. One of the only technology stocks that pays a dividend over 2%. Has been sold off along with the concerns of the international slowdown. Good management. Growth has been diminished significantly. For tech exposure, he prefers the NASDAQ 100 Trust (QQQQ-Q). | 2008-08-25 | |
| Comment | 51.500 | Paul Harris, CFA | If you're trading the stock, from a technical perspective it is at the bottom of the range. The company suffers from being in an industrial area that is slowing down. If you are buying for the long term, this could get cheaper and you should wait. | 2008-06-25 | |
| BUY | 42.030 | Paul Harris, CFA | Trades about 15 X earnings. Would have been a perfect merger with GE (GE-N). Eventually some one will buy it. Likes the company. Well run. | 2006-12-12 | |
| DON'T BUY | 42.980 | Paul Harris, CFA | Fairly valued at these levels. Trades around 15 X next year’s earnings. Doesn’t see a lot of upside. One of the issues in the overall industry is a need for mergers and acquisitions. | 2006-11-30 | |
| BUY | 38.800 | Gavin Graham | A late cycle company, which means that capital equipment will hold up better. There has been under investment in capital equipment which means investments in infrastructure should be good. | 2006-09-06 | |
| TOP PICK | 36.260 | Francis Gannon | Reported a fantastic quarter. Enormous cash flow. | 2004-07-23 | |
| TOP PICK | 36.260 | Barbara Marcin | Has good earnings. A good investment for the next couple of years. | 2004-07-23 | |
| TOP PICK | 36.540 | Barbara Marcin | Moving into the middle of this expansion cycle, likes manufacturing and industrial companies. Has a few years good outlook ahead of it. A good investment and hasn't been for a while. | 2004-06-18 | |
| TOP PICK | 28.050 | Ray Steele | Weaker US$ helps their overseas business. General manufacturing is starting to pick up. Reasonable multiple. | 2003-06-19 | |
| HOLD | 22.940 | Joe Connolly | Asbestos is a problem. Has good potential with the military. Could have more downside. | 2002-10-01 | |
| WAIT | 28.520 | Ross Healy | At a bottom. Fair market value is $70. Cheap. Could drop further. May have some litigation over asbestos exposure. | 2002-09-11 | |
| DON'T BUY | 28.350 | Glenn Paradis, BA, CFA | Has some risk in its turn around. Prefers GE. | 2001-10-16 | |
| DON'T BUY | 26.000 | Joe Connolly | Has exposure to both airlines and defense. Have to wait to see if there is a war. Will be volatile. | 2001-09-26 | |
| DON'T BUY | 36.200 | Gavin Graham | Business is deteriorating. Poor fundamentals. | 2001-06-26 | |
| DON'T BUY | 46.250 | Ross Healy | If the takeover by GE doesn't happen, then it will drop. If GE does take over, GE stock is not cheap so you gain nothing. | 2001-03-06 |
