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)
HOLD
It is a good solid dividend payer but he is challenged by the growth prospects. He is not in that sector. The dividend is safe. It is being challenged by NetFlix. The new generation are streamers and don't watch TV.
COMMENT
BCE vs. Telus BCE's growth potential is a little limited vs. Telus. Telus' dividend is okay, but a little lower than BCE's. BCE was one of the few stocks rising when the rest of the market fell. Not a bad idea to also buy Telus. Both are good for cash flow through their dividends. That's why he bought BCE. Telus has a little more growth.
HOLD
Don’t worry that it is not participating. It will be impacted by rates and a rush to safety. If it was bought recently it has declined a little bit. It is a little over extended. It will probably stick in the current range. BCE-T will be impacted by rates. $51 - $67 will be the range it is stuck in.
COMMENT
If Canada bans Huawei would this company be hurt as they are using Huawei equipment to build the 5G network - They do have a lot of their equipment from Huawei. They would have to replace this equipment. It might cost them some money but eventually it will be passed through to the consumer. It is an incremental expense but will be manageable.
DON'T BUY
He sold it in 2018 to move the money into VZ-N. The growth potential for VZ-N was much higher. The BCE-T payout ratio has moved up over the years. We have the highest phone rates in Canada. It gets his out of the Canadian economy. (Analysts’ price target is $59.00)
HOLD
Can telcos get impacted by the lack of rising interest rates? To offset this lack of rising rates, you need a company with earnings growth. AQN fulfills this, for example, but not BCE. You can hold it for the 5% yield though.
