  • Board Shareholder Confidence Index (BSCI) 2013
    Board Shareholder Confidence Index (BSCI) 2013 Developed in spring 2003, the Board Shareholder Confidence Index comprises of factors often used by active shareholders to assess Boards of Directors*. While there are other variables not in our model that contribute to the effectiveness of Boards -- including elements that can only be observed from inside the boardroom -- we capture factors affecting shareholders’ confidence in the Boards’ abilities to fulfill their duties. These factors are different from the TSX Guidelines for effective corporate governance in that they take into account the shareholders’ perception of risk. Based on factors available to those outside the walls of the boardroom, we evaluate and rank Boards of Directors by their potential to act in an effective way and by their performance, as indicated by past practices. The score is developed using four linked steps. The result is a transparent, objective, and adaptable rating system that assigns companies listed on the S&P/TSX Composite Index a score out of 150. *We have updated the BSCI scoring criteria in 2013. Please see the BSCI 2013 Methodology for further details.

  • Wednesday's TSX Breakouts: a Little-Known Stock That's up 38% with a Further 40% Gain Forecast
    TOP STORIES Trudeau appoints Jacqueline O’Neill as Canada’s first ambassador for women, peace and security ANALYSIS Wednesday’s TSX breakouts: A little-known stock that’s up 38% with a further 40% gain forecast JENNIFER DOWTY PUBLISHED 7 HOURS AGO FOR SUBSCRIBERS 0 COMMENTS On today’s TSX Breakouts report, there are 30 stocks on the positive breakouts list (stocks with positive price momentum), and 36 securities are on the negative breakouts list (stocks with negative price momentum). Discussed today is a stock that investors with a high risk tolerance may want to put on their radar and conduct further research on. This micro-cap stock is in an uptrend, closing at a record high on May 31. Year-to-date, the share price is up nearly 38 per cent. However, in the absence of any news and elevated market volatility, the share price may drift down to the high 80 cent range in the near-term. There are two analysts who cover the company and both analysts expect the stock to deliver solid double-digit returns over the next 12 months (forecast one-year returns are 54 per cent by one analyst and 26 per cent by another analyst). The security featured today is Redishred Capital Corp. (KUT-X).

  • Advisor Managed Accounts: October 2020 Commentary
    CIBC WOOD GUNDY BLUE HERON ADVISORY GROUP www.blueherongroup.ca I 250 361-2284 [email protected] ADVISOR MANAGED ACCOUNTS: OCTOBER 2020 COMMENTARY We are prone to review our actions to assess what worked as we had hoped and what could be improved upon. Through the early part of this year we are heartened that our investment process based around the equity action call – when to be cautious and raise cash, and when to return to fully invested – have added value for our clients. As the COVID pandemic began to move around the globe in early March uncertainty became apparent and the equity markets deteriorated. Our Equity Action Call moved from green to yellow to red in fairly short order and by rule we raised cash in our managed portfolios. We feel this was a prudent move not just in the context of following our discipline, but also in the general context of uncertainty. Many of our colleagues and investors across the country took similar action so we do not feel this to be a particularly bold or unique call. However, more interesting to us was that by the middle of April the equity markets had started to regain their footing and money began to flow back in. Despite a continuing abundance of uncertainty and economic disruption, stock prices began to rise. By the end of April our Equity Action call had returned to green and our portfolios were again fully invested. This allowed our clients to participate is a substantial rise in equity values over the last 6 months from May through October, double digit gains in many of our portfolios.

  • Board Shareholder Confidence Index 2016
    Clarkson Centre for Board Effectiveness Board Shareholder Confidence Index 2016 Developed in spring 2003, the Board Shareholder Confidence Index comprises factors often used by active shareholders to assess Boards of Directors*. While there are other variables not in our model that contribute to the effectiveness of Boards -- including elements that can only be observed from inside the boardroom -- we capture factors affecting shareholders’ confidence in the Boards’ abilities to fulfill their duties. These factors are different from the TSX Guidelines for effective corporate governance in that they take into account the shareholders’ perception of risk. Based on factors available to those outside the walls of the boardroom, we evaluate and rank Boards of Directors by their potential to act in an effective way and by their performance, as indicated by past practices. The score is developed using four linked steps. The result is a transparent, objective, and adaptable rating system that assigns companies listed on the S&P/TSX Composite Index a score out of 150. *Please see the BSCI 2016 Methodology for further details.
