Hot Canadian Stocks To Buy For 2019

tags:MMM,TRP,III,WFC,CM, 2016 was a surprising year...   It was the eighth year of this bull market. But that didn't slow things down.   U.S. stocks jumped 12%. Oil prices soared by 45%. And gold had a wild ride, eventually ending the year up 9%.   With all that happening, you might have missed the major boom that happened in our neighbor to the north... Canada.   Canadian stocks had a fantastic 2016... rising 22%. But history says that boom has gotten out of hand. Double-digit losses are likely this year. And that means now is time to bet against one of 2016's big winners.   Let me explain...   Canadian stocks were a stealth winner last year. The iShares MSCI Canada Fund (EWC) went up 22%... And it soared an incredible 40% from its January low to the end of 2016.   The problem is that Canada's stock market is now incredibly overbought... And that means lower prices are likely.

Hot Canadian Stocks To Buy For 2019: 3M Company(MMM)

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By JJ Kinahan]

  Earnings appear to be helping equities futures, if slightly, with six Dow Jones Industrial Average ($DJI) components reporting this morning. Leading the way was construction equipment maker Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT), which reported solid earnings of $2.82 a share versus analyst consensus of $2.11. CAT shares rose more than 4 percent in pre-market trading. Other Dow components advancing on this morning's earnings include Verizon Communications inc. (NYSE: VZ), Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO) and United Technologies Corporation (NYSE: UTX). The $DJI’s advance appears to have been muted, however, on weaker earnings by 3M Co. (NYSE: MMM), which fell nearly 4 percent on lower company guidance, and insurance giant Travelers Companies Inc. (NYSE: TRV), which fell short of analyst estimates.

Hot Canadian Stocks To Buy For 2019: Wells Fargo & Company(WFC)

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By ]

  In Tuesday's Kass Insider I remarked that there are a number of factors contributing to my cautious near-term market view:

  Narrow Market Leadership. We're back to a market that's basically led by the FAANGs -- Facebook (FB) , Amazon (AMZN) , Apple (AAPL) , Netflix (NFLX) and Google/Alphabet (GOOG) , (GOOGL) . Facebook, Amazon, Apple and Alphabet are holdings in Jim Cramer's Action Alerts PLUS. Rising Short-Term Interest Rates. The 2-year U.S. note yield is up about 1.3 basis points at 2.39%. Complacency. I'm seeing more investor complacency -- anecdotally, in the business media and elsewhere -- ever since market's main indices rallied off of their recent lows. Gold. The rise in gold looks solid. I'm currently long the SPDR Gold Shares ETF (GLD) . Lackluster Banks. We're seeing disappointing action in the financials. However, I continue to buy them. I'm long Bank of America (BAC) , Citigroup (C) , JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and Wells Fargo (WFC) , although I'm shorting Goldman Sachs (GS) .

  So it may seem like scandal-plagued banking giant Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) might be right up my alley. Because of the bank's infamous fake-accounts scandal and other issues, Wells Fargo has significantly underperformed its peers and may look attractive to bargain-seeking investors.
