Hi there,
I think both of these were considered value stocks as they took quite a beating during the pandemic. There has been a notable shift from growth to value in recent months and as a result both LNR and NFI have benefited.
I'd say at these levels, LNR still has room to run. Despite fully recovering from pandemic lows, it is only trading at 11 times forward earnings. Worth noting however, that many auto parts stocks on the TSX have a history of trading at cheaper valuations - the lone exception being Magna. Given this, I'd say it is close to fully valued and will move with its expected growth rates which is in the low to mid teens.
NFI also has room to fun, but may have slightly more upside due to the fact it has not yet fully recovered. The problem with NFI is demand for its private coach business remains uncertain. All things considered however, I really like NFI and it is well positioned to transition from a shift to EVs. It is more dependent on execution though as it did have some challenges in 2019, prior to the pandemic. Then the pandemic hit, which exasperated some of its issues.
That being said, these operational issues were a first for the company and it had been a strong performer for a number of years. It appears those issues have been resolved, so assuming it can execute there is likely more upside here. If it doesn't, could get stuck trading sideways.
