This summary was created by AI, based on 39 opinions in the last 12 months.

BCE Inc. is currently in a challenging environment, facing significant pressure from competition, particularly from innovative technologies like Starlink that disrupt the traditional telecom model. Many experts view BCE as a defensive income investment rather than a growth opportunity, especially after its dividend cut, which has made its yield more sustainable but has disappointed those seeking capital appreciation. The sentiment among analysts is mixed; while some highlight BCE's strategic pivot towards AI data centres and cost-cutting measures as positive moves, others warn of the increased competition and pricing pressures in the sector. Analysts agree on the stability offered by BCE's traditional business model, but foresee difficulties in securing growth amidst evolving market conditions. Overall, BCE is perceived as being in a transition phase, with potential long-term growth if it successfully navigates its challenges.

Telus, T
DON'T BUY
Fundamentals have been deteriorating over the last several quarters. Model price is around $22. The yield is probably holding it where it is.
DON'T BUY
Doesn't care for the direction management has been taking. Prefers others in the telecom area.
DON'T BUY
Telecom business is very competitive. Very difficult for them to get growth.
DON'T BUY
Stock came down during the bear market and did nothing during the bull market. Has fallen below the 200 day moving average. There is a danger that the stock could drop back to around $22.
DON'T BUY
Have been selling off is there not crazy about the stock right now. Can see them getting into a price war, especially with cellular.
WATCH
Feels that the interest sensitive dividend paying stocks have been oversold. Inflation numbers are due tomorrow and if BCE sells off by $1/1.50, they may take the opportunity to buy.
DON'T BUY
Has been a very disappointing performer. The big question on Telcom's is voice over Internet affect on market share and margins. Attractive dividend yield.
DON'T BUY
Model price of $23.69.
DON'T BUY
Has a long downwards trendline which the stock tried to break through at around $29. Will probably retest the lows of $17/$18 from 2002.
DON'T BUY
A very good value stock, but he's a growth manager, so not interested. Good yield. Exposed to a lot of technology trends that would give him concerns.
DON'T BUY
Dividend is probably secure, but not a fan of this company. Expect they will have tremendous competition because of voice over IP.
BUY
In a trading range. Buy below $28 and sell when it nears $31. 4% yield. Has concerns for the long term with the competition.
HOLD
A good value stock. Has lagged lately. Decent dividend. Compared to US peers, it's the cheapest one. Wireless side is working out OK.
DON'T BUY
Dont own. No clear driver in earnings growth. Reduction in revenue.
HOLD
Wouldn't be buying at this level. Has been a dog. Poor dividend yeild.
