This summary was created by AI, based on 45 opinions in the last 12 months.

BCE Inc. has been facing significant challenges, including a recent dividend cut aimed at bolstering cash flow for investments, particularly in the U.S. market. Expert reviews highlight that while the stock offers a decent dividend yield of approximately 5%, it's viewed more as an income-generating asset rather than a growth opportunity. Concerns regarding competitive pressures in the telecommunications sector, especially with increasing competition from players like Freedom Mobile and regulatory hurdles, have emerged as notable headwinds. Many analysts maintain a cautious outlook, suggesting that the stock could stabilize in the long term but may not witness substantial upside in the near future. Overall, while there are opportunities for operational improvements and strategic pivots, uncertainty remains about BCE's ability to reclaim previous growth trajectories.

Telus, T
DON'T BUY
The local and long-distance phone businesses are mature businesses subject to price competition from voice over Internet. Very difficult for them to grow.
HOLD
Has been in a very narrow trading range. Well-positioned in any economic recovery. Likes what management is doing refocusing the company on its core operations. The big challenge will be voice over Internet.
DON'T BUY
Fair market value is about $30/31, so not a lot of upside left. Trading at about 2X book value, which is an absolute maximum. What's holding it at this price is the 4½% dividend.
DON'T BUY
Not a big fan of telcos. Cable companies are wanting to get into their turf which is a signal that makes him nervous.
BUY
Have executed very well over the last two years. Likes management. Continuing to unwind non-core assets. Telecom sector is under pressure. Expect the stock will be higher two years out.
WEAK BUY
Havent made any money over past few years. Flat as a pancake. Best position.
WAIT
Similar earnings this year as last year. Wont be an increase in dividend. BCE ins tgoing anywhere in the near future. Working on telephone over the interent.
DON'T BUY
Fully valued. Model price is $28.
PAST TOP PICK
(A top pick Oct 30/03. No change.) A defensive pick. Likes the fact that they are focusing on their core businesses.
PAST TOP PICK
(A past top pick Jan 20/03. Down 3%.) Still likes it because of its dividend.
PAST TOP PICK
(A past top pick Dec 6/03. Up 2.8%.) Has lagged the market. The big issue with these companies is the Voice over IP strategy. Should do well in a recovering economy.
BUY
Cheap at this price. Not a lot of growth, but a good steady dividend. A good conservative holding.
BUY
Gave 4% return last year, which is basically the dividend. Having been such a laggard last year, expects it to move up.
DON'T BUY
They didnt raise the dividend because they dont have any money. They're paying the dividend out of nothing. Model price is 27.61. Fully valued.
HOLD
Will be going into voice over Internet, but will take time. Gives a decent yield and has a good P/E compared to its peers.
