Market sentiment
Sentiment is neutral to slightly positive: investors highlight dividends/buybacks and a strong balance sheet, while concerns about timber markets and construction demand cap near-term enthusiasm.
Why HOLD ?
- **Hold**: strong balance sheet, real-asset backing, and shareholder-friendly capital returns.
- Upside exists, but **Wood Products** and power prices add near-term uncertainty.
- **Wait for the Q1 report** for confirmation on margins and demand trends.
- Hold. Consider adding on clear timber-market improvement or a larger dip (e.g., >10%).
