BUY

Is a core holding of portfolio and likes the business. Rising interest rates will create positive environment for utilities. Good management that executes well.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 06/21, Down 14%) Rough year for all power producers, especially renewables. Actually performed OK in relation to peers. Utility assets are looking relatively attractive again. They might shine again in 2022-23, if you're looking for defense and a potentially challenging year. If the market rips ahead, these will lag, but he likes the 5-ish% dividend. Long term for him.

BUY

For a taxable account so you get the tax credit It pays a nice, rising dividend, but shares have drifted lower in the past year, until it's now attractive. AQN is among the best in renewable energy.

BUY

The dividend should be solid . Good to buy in layers as with other stocks. Some now and more later as price rises.. He owns Brookfield Limited Partners and likes the management.

WAIT

Likes it. For energy, he shops around for dividend yield, and balances the portfolio around those. He wants to hold higher levels of cash right now, as he's concerned about markets. He'd wait to buy more, but still owns them for the cashflow.

BUY

AQN vs. TA vs. RNW AQN's growth rate is 13%, trading around $17, a discount to the group. At these levels, when not many people are owning it and not expecting much, AQN pays a nice dividend. RNW had turbine problems and pulled back. TA is at a discount to the sum of its parts, as it owns RNW but doesn't get full value in the share price. TA is the better buy for upside.

BUY

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. They have had a hard time meeting estimates these past few quarters. They did a confusing financing deal this year which investors did not like. The company is still attractive for income, and the valuation is cheap compared to peers. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

BUY

He likes this sector a lot. These stocks have done nothing for a year, been a while. Demand for power will continue to rise and renewables won't go away. He doesn't own AQN, but this sector. AQN pays a dividend, and the future of this sector looks good.

COMMENT

Question on whether to increase position in Alta Gas or Algonquin Power. Prefers Algonquin but doesn't own. However a pullback would be interesting. Algonquin has been consistently successful. Alta Gas is over-leveraged but they have new management now.

TOP PICK

Great valuation on stock price. Risk of higher interest rates has affected utility sector. Market negative on most recent acquisition (Kentucky Power). Good for income oriented investor.

BUY

Generally, he doesn't like share dilution, but ask the reason why. For instance, to buy assets and grow the company is a positive. AQN is fine; it will benefit from the ESG movement. Likes it. Renewables and AQN have had a tough year, but it offers good value now and long-term growth.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Not cheap, but still a buying opportunity. Canadian utilities have sold off with the threat of rising rates. Raised equity for its acquisition. These are 2 overhangs on the stock. Still upside. Lots of growth, underpinned by cashflows. If it dropped another 10-15%, he would aggressively accumulate shares.

BUY

They have 35 years to go to be the next Fortis, but they're on the right track. The stock has dropped because of a big, unsurprising acquisition of Kentucky Power and did an equity issue. Long-term tailwinds are the greening of the energy grid and short. Renewable power stocks ran up after Biden was elected, then pulled back earlier this year. That froth came off. All headwinds are temporary though. He's been buying at current levels and believes in it long-term. The grid is becoming greener. He's positive all green energy stocks. AQN pays a steady dividend.

SHORT

Shorted it on poor price momentum and valuation. It is expensive. When interest rates move higher, they are hurt as a bond proxy. Still not cheap enough. 1.8x book value. Has good yield approaching 5%. Balance sheet is okay compared to other utilities but it is expensive.
