This summary was created by AI, based on 40 opinions in the last 12 months.

BCE Inc. currently faces significant challenges within a highly competitive telecom sector, leading to a decline in its stock price and a considerable dividend cut of 56%. Experts highlight that while BCE's traditional telecommunications business remains stable, it is under pressure due to competition from alternatives like Starlink and regulatory challenges. Many analysts view BCE as primarily a dividend play, appealing for income but lacking in growth potential. The company's strategic move towards AI data center infrastructure shows promise and could provide new revenue streams, with an aim for $2 billion by 2028. Despite the current struggles, the consensus suggests that BCE has potential for recovery in the long term, supported by its more manageable payout ratio and recent upgrades from brokers indicating institutional interest.

Gaining market share in TV and wireless communication. Growing media presence so it is diversifying its revenue and earnings base. Not a high flyer. Attracts the income crowd that wants slow growth.

Very over valued. Model price of $29.47, 30% downside, but everyone is going for yield and it is over 5%. If he had any smell of BCE doing the wrong thing, it could call to $38 and if it broke that level it would mean lower prices. Otherwise it could be here for a while.

(Market Call Minute.) Cheaper than Telus (T-T) of more expensive than Rogers (RCI.B-T). If you want dividends that grow, this is the one to own.

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%.

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.

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

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.
