Globe says Norbord, others should gain in value

The Globe and Mail attempts to identify Canadian growth stocks that are focused on safety and value in its Thursday, April 19, edition. The Globe's guest columnist Sean Pugliese writes in the Number Cruncher column that he screened for growth by looking at Canadian-listed equities with positive annualized revenue growth of 15 per cent or better over the past three years. He looked for companies with a market capitalization of $1-billion or more. Mr. Pugliese says he views market capitalization as a safety factor. As well, he says he likes large, stable businesses that can grow as that should increase the value of the company and its resulting share price in the long term. He also looked at leverage or debt-to-equity as a safety factor. Mr. Pugliese further looked for companies that can grow and pay dividends. All his stock picks are projected to pay a dividend over the next year. He also looked for stocks that are "cheap." Lastly, he considered the 52-week total return to track performance over the past year. Mr. Pugliese recommends buying Norbord, West Fraser Timber, CCL Industries, Birchcliff Energy and Whitecap Resources.
