Long -term investment is a strategy in which an investor holds and holds a share or an active one for more than three years. With this strategy you can take advantage of the power of compiling while protecting against short -term volatility. Moreover, it is less time -consuming and it draws up lower transaction costs. However, investors must be careful when selecting shares. They have to invest in shares with solid underlying companies and a healthy growth potential in the long term. Let’s look at this background at my three best bets in the long term.
Celestics
Would be my first choice Celestics (TSX: CLS), who yesterday reported impressive performance in the second quarter and beat his guidance. The top line came to $ 2.9 billion, which represents an increase of 21% compared to the quarter of last year, driven by growth in both segments. The strong performance of its Segment Connectivity & Cloud Solution (CCS), with a turnover of $ 2.1 billion – an increase of 28% compared to the quarter of the previous year, drove its top line. The hardware platform solutions, part of the CCS segment, increased its turnover by 82% on an annual basis to year to $ 1.2 billion during the quarter. In the meantime, income from its other segment, Advanced Technology Solutions (ATS), 7% to $ 0.82 billion grew.
Supported by the top line growth, expansion of the adapted operational margin from 6.3% to 7.4%, and the decrease in ShareCount as a result of return in the last four quarters, the adjusted profit per share (profit per share) of the company (profit per share) was $ 1.39, which represents an increase of 54.4% on the annual basis. In the midst of his impressive performance in the second quarter and the growing demand of his CCS customers, the management of Celestica has increased its income from 2025 and adapted EPS guidelines. In addition, the growing investments in the expansion of data centers to support the increased acceptance of artificial intelligence (AI) have created long -term growth potential for its products and services. Celestica also acts on an attractive NTM (the coming 12 months) price-to-sales several of 1.7, making it an excellent purchase.
Shopify
Would be second on my list Shopify (TSX: Shop), which offers internet infrastructure for small and medium -sized companies (SMEs) to perform and expand their companies. The continuous trade conflicts and the imposition of rates have created challenges for SMEs. In the meantime, Shopify has launched new functions, such as product filtering per country, service calculation and shipping management, to help SMEs perform their cross -border trade.
Furthermore, Shopify focuses on expanding his payment platform, which offered it at the end of the first quarter in 39 countries. The improved platform will help the company to streamline onboarding processes, improve security, stimulate the conversion rates and increase lower costs. The company has also launched multicurrency payments in 20 European countries, allowing sellers to accept payments in different currencies.
In addition, Shopify is investing in AI to develop innovative products and services to improve user experience, improve production possibilities and to stimulate operational efficiency. The company recently took over Vantage Discovery to strengthen its AI-driven search functions. In addition, the increased acceptance of the Omnichannel sales model has created growth potential for Shopify in the long term, making it a tempting long-term purchase.
Dollarama
Dollarama (TSX: Dol) offers a wide range of consumer products on attractive price points via its superior direct-sourcing business model and efficient logistics. That is why the discount retailer enjoys a healthy sale in the same store, even during a challenging environment. In the meantime, the company is planning to add more than 560 stores in the coming eight years, which increases the number of stores to 2,200 by the end of the tax 2034. Given the efficient capital model, fast sales deviation, lower average payback time and minimum shopping network maintenancescapex requirements, these extensions can drive both the upper and the operating results.
In addition, Dollarama completed the takeover of the rejection last week, which operates 390 discount shops in Australia, which marks the access of the company in the Australian market. In addition, Dollarama has a 60.1% interest in dollarcity, which operates 644 stores in Latin -America and is planning to increase its shop count to 1,050 towards the end of the tax 2031. Given all these factors, I believe that the upward trend in dollaramas will continue and the share course will stimulate.
