Emera Inc (EMA-T) is recognized for its reliable service delivery, particularly in regions like Florida and Nova Scotia. Experts acknowledge the company’s steady growth, with a strong emphasis on dividend yield, though they anticipate a slower growth pace compared to recent highs. There are positive signs in Florida due to population growth and regulatory support, as well as potential in Nova Scotia from the unfreezing of rates. While some analysts express concerns about historical leverage and payouts, many highlight that the current financials appear stable. Overall, most agree that the company's diversified operations position it well for future growth, despite its current valuation being somewhat stretched compared to historical norms.

NEE
BUY
Too boring to be a takeover candidate but that makes it attractive for him. 4.7% dividend. Relatively attractive price earnings ratio. (See Top Picks.)
TOP PICK
4.83% bond maturing in December 2/19. Investment grade.
HOLD
Hydro-Quebec’s takeover of New Brunswick Power shouldn't have any effect on this stock. Prefers Fortis (FTS-T) with a higher growth rate of possibly 10% and yield of 4.11% for a total return of about 14%.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
If looking for a growth and income model, this would definitely be a candidate. Look for a little lower price. 5.1% yield.
BUY
Utilities have not moved up in comparison to bank stocks. He prefers the utilities now. Likes it.
TOP PICK
East Coast electric utility. Very defensive. Yield of about 5%. This will pay you to wait.
TOP PICK
Very defensive. Utility and 3% of its contracted cash flow. Limited but solid growth. Dividend.
BUY
Very good performer. Largely the holding company of Nova Scotia Power. Also has some pipeline and utilities in Maine. Generous yield and raises its dividend every year or two. With BCE (BCE-T) being taken out, there will be a lot of money that will be looking for a home in the utilities. (Also see Top Picks.)
COMMENT
The macro overview for not buying the stock would be because of rising expectation of inflation, leading to rising interest rates that would not be good for interest sensitive stocks. However, there is now an expectation of disinflation and this stock would do very well. Would think total return would be around 9% or 10%.
BUY
Money will be flowing out of BCE (BCE-T) and Transalta (TA-T) looking for a home in the regulated area. This is a natural. Under priced.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Has a beautiful W formation, which is very important. Stock may be a little ahead of itself and wouldn't hurt if it came back to around $22 or $22.50.
BUY
Investing in Openhydro Group for Bay of Fundy tidal power. Tidal power is one of the great unrealized technology dreams. No one has done it successfully yet. Utilities have been in favour the last few years as inflation has been low and dividends have been very attractive. Doesn't have to succeed in tidal power to be an attractive holding.
WEAK BUY
The growth prospects for the company are higher than they used to be. The regular utilities business is regulated and low growth. Nice yield and dividend grows once in a while. Not exciting. An income play.
TOP PICK
Great dividend yield of 4.4% and defensive. Cheap on a price to book and earnings per share. Great relationship with the regulator and they are a utility.
TOP PICK
(All 3 Top Picks are defensive, have good dividends, solid earnings and limited downside.) Utility. Biggest holding is Nova Scotia Power. 4.4% yield. Raises the dividend every year or two. If interest rates start coming down, it makes this stock very attractive.
