Today's stock picks by Teal Linde and Michael Sprung are RY-T, VET-T, T-T, BN-T, OWL-N, TRP-T.

TOP PICK
Brookfield Corp

It is the mother-ship corporation of all the other Brookfield entities. Its goal is to grow its capital at 15% compounded annually over the long term and has done this over the last 10 years and even more over the last 20 years. Its NAV is $74 per share as of last fall so it is trading at a discount to NAV.        Buy 7  Hold 3  Sell 1

(Analysts’ price target is $64.43)
investment companies / funds
TOP PICK
Blue Owl Capital

It is riding three waves in the investment world: leaseback transactions, private credit and alternative investments. Also it owns stakes in private equity firms which are very profitable.     Buy 10  Hold 4  Sell 0

(Analysts’ price target is $20.33)
Financial Services
TOP PICK
TC Energy

Its dividend is 7%. It is not usually that high which means the stock is oversold. It is putting out more positive news in the past little while and insiders have bought $8 million worth of stock over the past year. A lot of analysts have Hold positions and should start to move away from this. It beat earnings estimates by 20% and raised guidance. It is at the low end of its trading range. If interest rates come down then the price could rise.    Buy 9  Hold 12  Sell 2

(Analysts’ price target is $55.92)
oil / gas pipelines
TOP PICK
Royal Bank

Currently selling at premium to other banks in the market, but valuation is justified. RBC offers stability for investors in case markets fall. Very strong balance sheet and steady stream of earnings. Dividend ~4% is safe and reliable. Compliance issues behind company. Recent closing of HSBC Canada will generate profits going forward. Offers good value for long term investors. 

banks
TOP PICK

Company has turned around - last quarter very strong. Believes energy prices will remain high. Company progressing in de-leveraging. Free cash flow will be returned to shareholders (~50%). Dividends are robust, and company on the way to recovery. Good valuation that offers safety for long term investors.  

oil / gas
TOP PICK
Telus Corp

Recent weakness in valuation offers goof margin of safety for investors. Coming towards the end in fibre build out - will be good for cash flow. Various revenues steam good for stability of business. Company should be able to continue dividend increases (~7%). Current dividend yield is very safe. 

telephone utilities
TOP PICK
Pfizer Inc

A very contrarian pick. Why now? Company's pivoting from Covid to cancer. Unfortunately, cancer is a huge market with 1 in 3 being diagnosed. Very strong lineup of potential new blockbuster drugs, management confidence is high on them. Market underappreciates it. Estimated to grow earnings 14%. Trades at 10x, with nice yield of 5.96%.

Near the bottom, won't go much lower. Not if it will work, but when. You get a nice dividend. Tomorrow's winner.

(Analysts’ price target is $32.26)
biotechnology / pharmaceutical
TOP PICK
Citigroup Inc.

Dead weight for a long time. Sweeping progress last year should continue and drive stock higher. Cheap, trades at 8x 2025 earnings, growing at 24%. More positive on US than Canadian banks. Pays decent dividend of 3.69%.

(Analysts’ price target is $61.92)
banks
TOP PICK
Brookfield Corp

Global leader in wealth management. Real estate appears to be turning the corner. If soft landing, one of his favourite plays. Fed rate cuts and rising liquidity should help shareholder returns. Trades at 10x price to adjusted funds, growing at 26%. Yield is 0.78%.

Ticks all boxes of offense and defense, growth and value. You don't have to sweat this name, a great performer all the time. Again, not if it goes higher, but when.

(Analysts’ price target is $64.41)

TOP PICK
Zoetis Inc
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

We select ZTS, the manufacturer of livestock and companion animal pharmaceuticals as a TOP PICK.  Quarterly cash flow is growing, while shares are bought back.  It has a strong market position, confirmed by its 49% ROE.  Its modest dividend is supported by a payout ratio of 30% of cash flow.  Animal care is a certain and growing sector.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $140, looking to achieve $226 — upside potential of 29%.  Yield 0.9%

(Analysts’ price target is $225.85)

TOP PICK
Cheniere Energy Inc
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

After recently reported earnings beat analyst expectations, we select LNG as a TOP PICK. The developer of LNG infrastructure trades at 18x earnings and supports a monsterous 200% ROE.  We like that cash reserves are growing, while debt is retired and shares bought back. Its modest dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 10% of cash flow.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $140, looking to achieve $200 — upside potential of 26%.  Yield 1.1%

(Analysts’ price target is $200.24)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

We again reiterate this low MER ETF as a great way to hold cash within your portfolio.  It holds capital in deposits with Schedule 1 banks and offers a high interest yield - great for holding within registered accounts.  This is not a holding to generate massive capital gains - just one to park your cash.  Yield 5.0%
