Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp (AQN) has undergone a significant transformation in recent years, primarily after divesting from its renewables segment to focus on regulated utilities. The sentiment among analysts is cautiously optimistic, signaling an improvement in the company's trajectory under new management, though many acknowledge ongoing struggles with a historically burdened balance sheet and mixed past performances. The stock is currently viewed as a potential turnaround story, with a rangebound trading characteristic and a decent dividend yield of about 4.3% to 5%. While some analysts recommend waiting for clearer signals of recovery, others see a strong technical foundation developing, suggesting that AQN could begin to appreciate in value as it stabilizes and moves towards a more predictable utility profile. General market conditions and broader trends toward renewable energy also present a mixed outlook, hinting at a gradual recovery phase ahead.

CPX

DON'T BUY

Acquiring Clean Power (CLE.UN-T), which should be accretive to the company. There are some synergies with this acquisition, but they're not the quality he likes to see.

HOLD

One of the names that he is a little nervous about in the power/income trust space. They wear over distributing and then came out with a convertible bond issue. Actually have some pretty good assets, but had a high payout ratio. Might sell into strength.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

There might be a new issue lurking in the background. Under $10, it's not a bad buy.

DON'T BUY

Have not been able to pay their distributions due to water problems. These utilities similar to bonds and when interest rates go up, it suffers.

DON'T BUY

In the near term, believes there is significant positive catalysts in terms of where electricity prices are. Over the longer term, this is a bit of a messy story in terms of assets. A fairly complex portfolio with a lot of complex contracts which are not clear to investors.

DON'T BUY

Has consistantly disappointed in terms of what it's been able to do operationally. Payout ratio has been substantially above 100% for a long time. Not a stable or secure trust.

BUY

Likes.

HOLD

Recently acquired by StarPoint Energy (SPN.UN-T). APF had too high a payout ratio which was unsustainable. The acquisition allows APF to be managed more efficiently.
