This summary was created by AI, based on 38 opinions in the last 12 months.

BCE Inc. has been facing significant challenges in the telecom sector, with experts expressing mixed sentiments about its future. Many analysts view BCE primarily as a dividend play, especially following a dividend cut that has made the payout ratio more manageable. While the company's traditional telecommunications business remains stable, it's under pressure from competition and changing market dynamics, including the rise of satellite internet services like Starlink. Some reviews highlight BCE's strategic shift towards AI data centers, suggesting potential growth in this area despite ongoing struggles in its core business. Overall, the sentiment leans towards caution, with a focus on income generation rather than capital appreciation for investors considering BCE at this time.

A safe haven stock. A great yield and the dividend grows yearly. If interest rates fall, it will continue to look good. Earnings are growing as well. Yield 5.14% (Analysts’ price target is $62.14)

The unlimited data plans will hurt the telcos. Another headwind is the CRTC banning 3-year plans on buying cell phones. BCE is trading at a high 16.3.x PE and growing at only 3.5% EPS. But the good thing about BCE is that they're less wireless than its peers. You will get paid the yield but don't expect growth. Buy this at $55. In fact, telcos did well today when the markets dropped 2-3%. But he prefers Quebecor and Shaw.

A good income stock with a good yield that grows each year. Part of an oligopoly in Canada, where the players are all increasing subscribers. Immigration is growing in Canada and appears to be helping these companies. Yield 5.2%

Aug 02, 2019
Using DRIP can be very successful with compound interest, especially if you can buy fractional shares. Not impressed with their latest results. The dividends are growing at 5% whereas the average is 7%. A big problem is that you have a virtual oligopoly in Canada but can't get more than 1 or 2% revenue growth. Where is the payback for 5G coming from?

A bond proxy? A steady stock with a good dividend. The price war in wireless is canalizing some margins. He thinks the fundamentals of the company will likely deteriorate over the next couple of years. A 5.3% yield. He will continue to hold for now.

There is a bit of friction between the various providers. We are seeing the introduction of new and bigger data plans with more reasonable pricing. It is one of the ones he would look at within the industry.

Technology infrastructure. Cost is actually going down. Franchise value. Sports' emotion gets played out in the stock market. Likes it as a core holding, great dividend, stable, extremely well managed. All this is really hard to replicate. With patience, great long-term rate of return.

They don;t own any of the cable operators. The dividend is safe. A problem that they had for a while which was the under-funding of their corporate pension plan was cleared. If you are looking for an oligopoly with safe income this fits nicely.

Getting a decent dividend. So if look at the dividend and the 2-3% share appreciation, that is giving you a decent return for the quality of name and size of business you are buying. US telco's are very different than Canadian. BCE is doing a good job and is growing.

5G will end up being relatively homogeneous so he doesn't worry too much. The problem with this company is that there is not much growth left. They had done so well and are so dominant. Not much else to buy. Your are left with a 5% dividend and 2% growth. He expects a 6% total return.
