Why the 3Q Investor Reaction
XLY has become an interesting turn-around story, and are on a nice path back to profitability. So why the negative reaction? So as an investor, I am thinking what can be the major disappointments.
First, large debt servicing is a big drag. 2nd, although they are increasing CDN market share, production limitations were a surprise. 3rd, no view for entry to US market. 4th, any hiccup to execution could lead to more share dilution, or increased debt.
Investor buy-in will depend fully on their confidence that the XLY ship will be kept steering in the right direction.
I for one, has a relatively high degree of confidence.

Good for you Nortzy. Wish I had been as astute as you. They need to cut costs while increasing revenue... not an easy feat while at at near to maximum production capacity. Operating margins and production capacity must somehow be increased. No more predictions from me...it's a wait and see......

Oceanis, 19% margins very low. Skew processing automation and cost reductions will be key. They can grow billions of bud if they want but the aforementioned is my focus and concern for now. Not to get me wrong, as I have previously posted, I have confidence that will prevail....XLY has executed a significant turn-around so far.
