| DON'T BUY | 1.790 | Peter Imhof | This has been a very difficult stock. Recently reported a very bad quarter. He would stay away from this one. Inventory has gone up a lot and their margins have fallen. Cut the dividend totally. Thinks they are in a bit of trouble. | 2011-12-29 | |
| DON'T BUY | 5.940 | Sandy McIntyre | Facing increased competition as US shops come up into the malls in Canada. Dividend coverage is a little bit on the weak side. | 2011-09-07 | |
| HOLD | 12.730 | Jason Donville | Great company. Challenge is that they are approaching saturation. Doesn’t know where the growth comes from. Move on when you get a chance. | 2010-06-29 | |
| TOP PICK | 13.600 | Allan Jacobs | Specialty retail clothing. Earnings were up 34% last year. Very flexible and can quickly handle changes in the marketplace. Yield of 4.6%. Pretty safe stock with upside. | 2008-08-27 | |
| Comment | 13.130 | Colin Stewart | Pretty good underlying business. Retail has been very much out of favour in this market. Trades at a very low valuation multiple and generates a significant amount of cash flow. Smaller capitalization stock and a very illiquid trader. | 2008-06-25 | |
| BUY | 12.550 | Colin Stewart | Moderately priced women's apparel. A really successful franchise in Canada. Trades at quite a discounted valuation at about 10X earnings. Has a healthy balance sheet with over $1 a share in net cash. Looking at this one. | 2008-02-27 | |
| TOP PICK | 13.600 | Patrick Kim | A very cheap name right now. Investors are frightened of the retail space, primarily because of the weak US$ and cross-border shopping cutting into the margins. Same-store sales growth has been double digit. No debt. | 2007-11-02 | |
| TOP PICK | 14.000 | Patrick Kim | Girls’ clothing. One of the best executors out there. Has been beaten up in the last couple of weeks because of a weaker back-to-school report. Has been oversold. 3.65% yield. | 2007-09-21 | |
| HOLD | 58.970 | Michael Smedley | Bought it for the special dividend that they had offered. Still ripe for sale. The only danger is that they get the fashion style wrong. | 2007-02-22 | |
| HOLD | 47.500 | Peter Hodson | This was one of the retailers that was talked about becoming an income trust. It had a run-up because of that. Well managed. Prefers US retailers that there's nothing wrong with this company. | 2006-01-05 | |
| BUY | 24.100 | Mark Jackson, CFA | Likes the specialty retailing group which are poised to do well for the holiday season. | 2004-12-07 | |
| TOP PICK | 17.400 | John Weatherall | Current inventories are selling very well and profits are very large. Stock has been off the map but is now rising. Selling at 6/7 X this year's earnings. | 2004-06-23 |
