| TOP PICK | 29.600 | Michael Smedley | Wood treated products for telephone and utility poles. These companies largely stick to their suppliers. Earnings were higher than expected. Raised the dividend. Good for the times when we come out of the bear market. | 2008-08-20 | |
| SELL | 39.000 | Bill Carrigan | Very thin trader that everybody get excited about, probably because they had no competition. Has broken its uptrend, which indicates the run is over and could trade sideways for quite a long time. Be very careful. | 2008-01-09 | |
| TOP PICK | 42.760 | Michael Smedley | Makes poles for utilities and ties for railroads. Has 70% of Canada's business and about 7%-8% of the US. Brilliantly run. Not many shares outstanding. Will possibly double the revenues in the next 2, 3 years. | 2007-10-31 | |
| BUY on WEAKNESS | 31.980 | Alex Lane | Make telephone poles and rare road ties. Strong customer base making them the dominant player. A boring old business that does its job very well. Good and consistent earnings growth. Would be a good buy on any pullbacks. | 2007-02-06 | |
| HOLD | 31.960 | Michael Smedley | Telephone poles. Considering another acquisition. Has no idea where it is going, but is holding most of his position. | 2006-11-22 | |
