Look for industry consolidation in the near future.The catalyst could come from a Canadian Income Trust,Keystone North America,that is trading at a discount relative to its peer group.Rest assured,Keystone, is not under any operational or financial distress but is a beaten down stock since the Canadian Govt passed legislation that would tax Income Trusts beginning 2011.The tax advantage removed,Keystone,traded down in the company of several Canadian Income Trusts and might attract private equity players seeking exposure in a defensive industry.
