▼ + stars: | 2024-11-27 | by ( Ganesh Rao | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

A London-based hedge fund is betting against Cargojet , Canada's largest cargo airline, citing concerns about the company's aging fleet, accounting practices, and leadership style. Allen also claimed that the company has failed to update the age of its aircraft fleet. The Toronto-listed shares of the company have struggled this year, posting a 2% gain while the broader Canadian stock market has risen by nearly 25%. At the time of Allen's presentation slide titled "Cargojet is expensive," the stock was trading at 27 times earnings and 3.5 times tangible book value. In comparison, traditional airline Lufthansa trades at 7 times earnings, and United Airlines is valued at 9 times earnings estimate.

The market is only driven by a handful of massive tech stocks – and therefore, it's built on a weaker foundation than a market advancing on a broader swath of its constituents. Companies don't lose dominance or stock leadership because they were dominant the last time we had a bull market. We trimmed Nvidia, Meta Platforms, Palo Alto Networks , and five other tech stocks at the beginning of the year. Would the market suddenly become more investible if we broke up the Super Six into say 15 different companies and stocks? However, we don't think they are a reason to bail entirely on any of these names.
