I rate Burlington Stores as hold due to near-term execution risks, macro headwinds, and lack of clear catalysts for multiple expansion. While Burlington 2.0 initiatives and margin improvements are positives, flat same-store sales and potential share loss to TJX and ROST are concerning. Tariffs, inflation, and volatile freight costs pose significant risks to FY25 guidance, making management's assumptions appear optimistic.

B2Gold remains undervalued despite its recent rally, trading at a steep discount to peers on a P/NAV basis despite an imminent upgrade in its jurisdictional profile. Aside from a jurisdictional upgrade (Canada vs. Africa and the Philippines), Goose is a transformational asset, set to generate over $400 million in annual mine-site free cash flow. Further, recent reserve reductions at Goose may be ugly on the surface but are a temporary setback, and I expect a significantly improved LOMP in the coming years.
