DON'T BUY
Not a fan of this company. Doesn’t think management has executed very well.
WEAK BUY
Really for an income type portfolio. OK for a high dividend yield. Their telephone business is showing a decline, but their mobility business is an area of growth. If you really want growth, look at Telus (T-T).
BUY
A lot of things they can fix up to improve results short term. Wire line still has some issues, but new management did a fantastic job at Telus (T-T) so wireless will pick up a little market share from Rogers (RCI.B-T).
SELL
Now that they have announced they are going to become a trust, he doesn't see much upside in it. All the good news is already in it.
COMMENT
Telus (T-T) and BCE (BCE-T) are converting into trusts. What is going on with Telus as far as their payout ratio goes looks very attractive and there is probably better growth prospects. Would opt for Telus between the two.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 26/05. Up 8.2%.) Continuing to evaluate it.
TOP PICK
Should be able to get an 8.5% yield. Once it converts, if you go to $35/36.
DON'T BUY
This company was overvalued. He has a model price of $27. There is an increase in the model price because analysts are now getting the taxes out of the income. A -16% differential.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
There may be a further pullback because of fears the government might interfere with the tax structure of income trusts. $32 would be a good price.
WATCH
Has engineered a restructuring for the last 24 months or so and are now converting to a trust. Would wait to see how it looks down the road.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick June 7/06. Up 15.9%.) Going forward towards the income trust, the stock will drift back up into the mid $30’s. The trust will give you better than an 8% yield.
BUY
Nice defensive stock. Technically, it has been in a range. Hasn't done much in the past year. Has broken out on speculation of becoming a trust. Has just announced it will become a trust. Technically, it could trade up to $34-$35.
DON'T BUY
Has a telephone business that is going to be gradually weakening long-term.
BUY
This stock was unloved for a long time. Dividend is good. Balance sheet is looking better. It is a very stable stock to hold during troubled times. Recommends holding if you own and buying if you don't.
DON'T BUY
On his watch list. This is not one he is close to owning. They are making a lot of changes and is certainly worth watching.
