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

BCE Inc. has faced significant challenges in the competitive telecommunications landscape, leading to a recent dividend cut of 56% aimed at funding growth and restructuring efforts, particularly in the AI data center infrastructure sector. Many experts recognize the company's dividend as relatively safe and attractive, citing a yield of around 5%, which is appealing for income-focused investors. However, they caution that the core business is under pressure due to intense competition, and prospects for capital appreciation may be limited in the near term. Some analysts suggest that BCE's strategic moves, including investments in the U.S. and advancements in fiber technology, could lead to long-term benefits, but a turnaround in share price may take time. Overall, while some see potential for stabilization and gradual growth, the general sentiment leans towards caution, with many preferring to approach BCE as a defensive income play rather than a growth stock.

This is a macro call. He doesn't think interest rates are going up and they are going to stay low for a long time. All the savers in North America are going to use the proceeds from their maturing bonds, GICs, etc. to find better rates of interest. This company has a decent yield at over 5%.

(Top Pick May 17/11, Up 13.90%) Incredibly high free cash flow generator. They raised the dividend. Telcos are starting to take market share back from the cable companies. Doing a great job of cutting costs. Are still reasonably valued. They will beat out cable companies over the next couple of years.

Probably a safe haven where you can park some money. Doesn't see a lot of capital upside. Have done very well at cutting costs and generating cash flow. Have been increasing their dividend and have been buying back stock. Dividend of 5.4%.

May 04, 2012
Dividend is okay and he wouldn’t be surprised if there is another small increase. He would like it at around the $38 level. Likes what they are doing on the marketing side. Thinks the deal with Rogers on the Maple Leaf and Blue Jays side will pay off. Feels their fibre optics will give Rogers (RCI.B-T) real difficulty on the cable side. Doesn't see huge growth. You own it for income and he wouldn't be looking for capital gain.

Great dividend and nearly 5.5%. This stock has always stayed above the 200 day moving average. Cash flow is great. This would be a more defensive part of your port folio.

If you can find a good quality telecom and hold it over time, GDP growth is about 2% and the telecoms find a way to take 2% of your wallet. Reasonable dividend. Good balance sheet. Reasonable growth profile.

COMMENT

BCE Inc.(BCE.TO)

Apr 03, 2012
Spending quite a bit of money on their 5 network. Banks are now performing well so there is some competition on yields. Telus (T-T) has been in the news recently regarding the amalgamation of the voting and non-voting shares. Also, there is a bit of profit taking in this sector.

Thins telcos will take markets share from cable companies. Fiber to the node or home is taking share from cable companies. They bought Astral. They won’t loose market share in Quebec because of the language barrier. US wont come up there. MBT was cheap but it popped.

(Top Pick Jun 15/11, Up 14.97%) No longer as cheap as it was. Would still own it. 5%+ yield. Management doing an exceptional job. Doesn’t see you getting hurt owning this kind of thing. Competitors will be forced to price their products rationally. Thinks they will acquire some of the other players.
