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

WATCH

He owns Telus. He recently bought Verizon in the US because of 5G. BCE and Telus are going to have to invest a lot in 5G technology. He does not see a lot of dividend growth going forward. These are not growth stories. You are buying them for their dividend and dividend growth.

BUY

Will the 5G conversion hurt the telcos? A challenge but also an opportunity for them. Look at how much capital they can tap, which BCE can without problem. Their stock price doesn't indicate that there's a big risk on the horizon. A great company with a fine dividend. You can buy and hold this and it will weather a recession. A big holding of his.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 15/18, Up 8%) Still likes it though the valuation is now a little pricey. He may take a few profits. BCE can be rocky. Pays a safe 5.5% dividend. Has a solid balance sheet and cash flow.

HOLD

Blue chip. One of the premium dividend payers. One of the issues is that pricing power is not quite there. Not a growth story, but you can 100% hold it as a dividend play. Nothing to propel earnings higher in next 2-3 years, so she's not excited about it. No chatter about future acquisitions. Great company, great management team. Yield is 5.5%.

DON'T BUY

He's not a fan of the telecom sector. 5% yield, but it's only growing at 5% a year, so it will take you 14 years to double. Prefers stronger free cash flow, so dividend can be raised 10% a year. 5G will be extremely expensive, doesn't see the economic benefit.

BUY

FTS-T vs. Utilities vs. Telecoms. It is an easy choice to Telcos. They are both regulated. Both steady state, stable businesses. BCE-T vs. FTS-T. He is long BCE-T. It is has good valuation here. 16 PE. FTS-T has 13 times. You should do better in Telecoms. T-T is warnings of implications f the Chinese telecom is banned from Canada.

BUY

BCE vs. BNS for dividend growth and a long-term holding He owns both. Two different companies. The view on interest rates is positive for both. BCE: telecoms won't suffer from cord cutting, since they have a stake in streaming as well; and wireless, cable and interest rates are still high in Canada. BNS: just added to his holding; been a poor performer in the past year, but their international exposure is a positive; pays a good dividend; and this is a safe stock. Canadian banks as a whole earn a lot of money, and he doesn't see problems in this sector. BCE is more defensive, but it comes down to which sector you want.

HOLD

Takes some profits now, then rebuy later? It's OK-valued, a little pricey. He's sticking with this, because their Fibe and customer service are fine. He's been very happy with Bell. And Crave is amazing.

SELL

He would take profit here and look to re-enter back around $49. He sees 20% possible downside from here based on his model valuation.

PARTIAL SELL

Defensives like this are trending higher, though December to March is its seasonality. Its 200-day moving average is moving higher. Taking profits now is a good idea. This could retrace its 200-day moving average.

HOLD

One concern is where will they find growth. Does have safety, a strong dividend. A widows and orphans stock. He doesn't own it, but sees no problem if you do. (Analysts’ price target is $58.00)

HOLD

Negative impact from Huawei, but BCE is so big, the impact would be marginal. Own it for the yield, with 1-2% growth. Needs the wireless to be driven higher, which will only come with population growth. As long as its growth matches the industry, BCE will be fine.

HOLD

Slow and steady. Sell at $60 as a trader. Otherwise, there's no reason to sell this.

BUY

He likes buying when stocks are sideways. He thinks it will go back to the low $60 range. It was well situated in the last market correction. For an income based relatively secure play it looks OK.

TOP PICK

Attractive 5.4% dividend especially in relationship to the 10-year 1.9% Canada bond. A huge spread. Likely that the stock will rise and the yield will decrease. (Analysts’ price target is $58.94)
