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

BCE Inc. has experienced significant challenges recently, including a dividend cut to manage its payout ratio and to invest in growth areas such as AI data centers. Experts view BCE as primarily a defensive play with a 5% yield, suitable for income-seeking investors rather than those looking for capital appreciation. While some analysts see potential in BCE's strategic initiatives, including cost reductions and a focus on AI, many remain cautious due to competitive pressures from companies like Starlink and regulatory challenges in the telecom sector. The general sentiment reflects a belief that BCE's core business will struggle amidst rising competition, and while there are positive indicators for long-term growth, the immediate outlook remains uncertain.

COMMENT

BCE Inc.(BCE.TO)

Aug 12, 2009
Just came out with some decent earnings. Trades at about 3X on a price to cash flow basis. 6.5% yield. Tremendous cash flow but no growth profile. Speculation on a merger with Telus (T-T).

His dividend play with a little bit of growth. Will probably Sell in a year or so if it gets into the high $20's. 6.3% yield.

Bought this one for the 6.36% yield. Came out with some pretty reasonable numbers and pretty reasonable forecast. Good company and management.

6.3% dividend is safe. In this whole space, you have to decide if you want income with modest growth such as BCE (BCE-T), Manitoba Tel (MBT-T) or Telus (T-T) or something more adventurous but with a slightly lower yield such as Rogers (RCI.B-T) or Shaw (SJR.B-T).

Versus BCE preferred. Unless there is a specific need for income you should always go to the common because you have some capital gains opportunities and the yield is comparative. Prefers Rogers (RCI.B-T) and Shaw (SJR.B-T).

Strong balance sheet. Have been buying back stock. Wonders about the impact when new wireless players come in. 6% yield. If you are looking for income, not double-digit growth, this is a good investment.

Midterm bonds yielding about 7%? Doesn't own any Telcos. Feels they are very highly regulated so there's not a lot of upside. However, this one short-term at 7% is okay but feels there are better places to be.

Has under performed the banks, which is a surprise. 6.3% yield. For people who are really uncomfortable with the market. Some day it will get a bit more respect.

Would focus more towards the wireless space such as Telus (T-T) or Rogers (RCI.B-T). Seemed to lose their focus during the Teachers Pension bid so this is not one of his favourites.

Has stripped down the management and is fighting back again just Rogers (RCI.B-T). Running it much more effectively. 6.5% dividend. Could very well do something with another cable company in order to get national geographic reach.

(A Top Pick May 15/09. Up 1.7%.) 9% free cash flow is attractive. Yield of about 6%. Stable business. Have been cost cutting and buying back shares. Recently did debt offerings that have been lower than what they’ve been in the past.
