Chemtrade Logistics Income Fund (CHE.UN) has garnered attention from analysts due to its diverse portfolio of chemical products, particularly for water treatment, which provides relative stability as demand from municipalities remains steady. Despite the company's past challenges, recent improvements and strategic initiatives have led to a stronger outlook, with EPS beating expectations and a solid dividend yield. Experts highlight the company's good performance over the past year, with some encouraging signs of sustained growth and a potential for further stock appreciation. However, some analysts caution about high debt levels and the cyclical nature of the business, suggesting a watchful stance as market conditions evolve. Overall, the sentiment leans towards optimism, yet with an emphasis on careful monitoring of market movements and potential risks ahead.
Upside is about $17.50. Well diversified company. Focuses on sulphur-based products, sulphuric acid that has many different end-market applications. Chemical company but 50% of revenues are “take or pay” contracts where they have some visibility with respect to price and a lot of the risk is mitigated. Payout ratio is below 65%. A likelihood of a dividend increase sometime down the road but management, at this point, is more focused on growth through acquisitions.
Over a long, long term it has had a very nice uptrend. Currently having a heck of a time breaking that $17 ceiling. Likes the very long-term picture as well as the 7% dividend. There is probably not going to be a lot of capital appreciation on the stock but in the meantime you make 7%. Eventually it will breakout because of the trend line.
Today’s acquisition will probably flatten the stock. It won’t go any further for a while until it is demonstrated how good the acquisition is.
