Altagas Ltd (ALA-T) has received a range of positive reviews from experts, highlighting its solid growth potential and strong infrastructure in both the U.S. and Canada. Analysts note that ALA's business is well-positioned to benefit from the increasing demand for energy, particularly in relation to data centers that rely on natural gas. The company’s balanced portfolio, comprising approximately 45% energy infrastructure and 55% regulated utilities, offers stability while also having exposure to growth markets. Some experts express a bullish outlook on ALA, suggesting it as a buy, particularly during market sell-offs, although opinions vary regarding the timing of investments and price levels, reflecting a mixed sentiment on short-term fluctuations. Lastly, the dividend yield and steady revenue from its operations in Virginia and Western Canada contribute to its attractiveness as a long-term investment.

PPL
WEAK BUY

Has been cheap relative to growth rate for several years. If the company executes well and interest rates fall, this can get to his target of $39. Just reported, outlook was as expected. New products coming online in 2026 & 2027. Nice dividend, probably growing at 6% for 2025, and 5% thereafter. Trades at 13.4x, reasonable growth rate ~7%.

Still likes it, though GEI may look better right now on price to growth.

BUY

Really likes it as a mid-streamer and for its natural gas distribution. Nat gas distribution in the US is its growth engine. Extremely well managed. Dividend can grow annually. Good infrastructure asset. Solid growth.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 24/24, Up 17%)

(Note the short timeframe.)
Still likes it. One of his largest positions.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 03/23, Up 27%)

Picked for natural gas tailwinds with cheap share price. Good midstream business with global exports. Excellent value in the share price - at the time. Still priced fairly. Expecting earnings, cash flow and dividend to continue growing. A good company to continue to hold/ 

BUY ON WEAKNESS

They're not that tied to the oil price, because they're more into natural gas and a midstream segment. This has pulled back with most utilities, due to interest rates and general profit taking. A well-run company that pays a good dividend. Not a bad name in utilities.

BUY

Trend is going in the correction direction. Would recommend investing. Ok place to be adding.  

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 16/23, Up 43%)

He still likes it for the strengthening balance sheet and utility growth. It is a good infrastructure play and is still cheaper than its peers.

BUY

A good play, done very well. No reason not to own. Good future, especially with extra takeaway capacity coming online. Infrastructure opportunities in Western Canada are superb.

Instead, he owns PPL and ENB, mainly because of the higher dividend yields.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 16/23, Up 35%)

Growth starting to slow a bit, but still near 7.5%; when you combine that with the dividend, still makes sense on a PEG of ~1. Trades at 13x 2026, cheaper than most peers. GEI starting to bite its heels, but still works.

TOP PICK

Debt is down, and the dividend is a healthy 3.64% based on a 55% payout ratio. True, the PE has been climbing in the past year, now just under 16x, but historically it's 17.33x. Though shares have rallied 18% so far this year, the street expects them to climb another 10% to an average price of $35.90. Note that as of this writing on the morning of August 1, shares were jumping over 2%, and analyst upgrades will likely follow. ALA is for traders and income investors alike.

BUY

Exposed to AI, the growth in data centres, particularly in one county in Virginia (they say it's home to 60-70% of all US internet traffic). They need server farms, and natural gas is the backup power. The local electrical power producer can't keep up with all the demand that everyone's buying NVDA for. Nice yield.

TOP PICK

He is thinking of buying it this week. It has a solid dividend and trend and he thinks the dividend goes up. Is looking for a stock price in the mid 30's by year end.. He would sell below $28.              Buy 11  Hold 0  Sell 0

(Analysts’ price target is $34.91)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 27/23, Up 35%)

Still likes business and will continue to own. Balance sheet continues to improve. Trading at a reasonable price. Expecting further growth. Growth better than peers. Excellent assets that are hard to replicate. 

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 11/23, Up 37%)

A long term shareholder - will continue to own. Problems from 2017/18 have been fixed. Dividend continues to rise. Very good assets that continue to perform. 

PARTIAL BUY
ALA vs. BCE

ALA trades at 12x earnings, growing at 12%. On PEG ratio, it's cheaper. Yield is 4%, growing comfortably at 5-8%.

BCE is paying a wonderful dividend. PE is more expensive. No growth right now, perhaps will see 3% in a couple of years. At $47, still a bit of upside from today's levels. Regulatory announcements have to go well for BCE, still pricing issues, still a bit of wood to chop.

For fresh money, ideally split it between both. If he had to choose one, it would be ALA.
