RE:Alimentation Couche Tard Inc. Has a $7.5 Billion Problem

What the author writes is true, but he doesn't address the other side of the coin.

I believe that because of the dual share structure, couche tard never develops a takeover premium like other growth stocks do, consequently, it's not really a growth stock, but more of a "show-me" stock. As I've written before, growth in the share price will follow growth in the earnings, like a bank stock, if you will, but without the security of a bank stock. This also leads to long periods of the stock categorized as dead money, as it is now. I will absolutely start to cash out some on the next uptick, and I have no idea when that will be.
