Enbridge (ENB) is viewed positively among experts, recognized for its stability and consistent dividend payments, currently around 5%. Many analysts appreciate the company's strong management and disciplined financial practices, highlighting its potential for modest EBITDA growth of approximately 5% yearly. Despite being a blue-chip company with a significant pipeline infrastructure, there are concerns regarding its capital intensity and relatively high debt levels. The stock's performance can be affected by market conditions, particularly fluctuations in long bond yields and oil prices, which may pose challenges for valuation. Overall, while some experts express caution about the potential for price declines, ENB remains a solid choice for those prioritizing income over growth in their investment strategy.

PPL
HOLD
Owns it in his income platform, not the equity platform which is more growth. Buys stuff that pays a good dividend, and looks to be basing. Trapped in a bit of a zone. Could go down if things get really bad, but it looks like a sideways stock. A good buy-and-hold income stock. Yield is 7%.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 28/17, Down 7%) He bought more in the spring when it was down. It is down in line with the Canadian market. He thinks it is a good company to own long term.
COMMENT
How does a dividend effect tech analysis? Tech analysis encompasses all knowledge. He marries it with fundamentals and seasonality. The dividend is reflected (asorbed) in the price of a stock. $48.59 was a breakdown in January, and will be a resistance going forward. The next level down is $40.30 where he expects support. $38 is the next level down. It'll trade in the $38-40 range.
DON'T BUY
It is not one he owns or sees a lot of opportunity in. Most investors stop doing due diligence after they see the dividend yield. You lose more on the back end than you make on the dividend. We need more pipelines to be built for them to grow their top line. He stays away because he cannot see where future growth comes from.
DON'T BUY

A company that is an investment banker's Christmas present everyday. They pursued a growth story and sold off assets to finance that growth. A lousy performer. They have destroyed value by boosting dividend. Maybe they turn the whole thing around. Other than financial engineering there is no reason to own this company. Lousy balance sheet. They have grown so much and portfolio managers own so much of it, they need to find new investors and he doesn't think they will find new investors.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 12/17, Down 8%) They did what they promised: completed $7 billion in asset sales, and de-levering their balance sheet, post-Spectra deal, and simplifying their corporate structure. They'll grow their dividend 10% annually to 2020. They have a backlog of projects to support this growth. Payout ratio is 60%. The stock is attractively priced now. Line 3 pipeline should come on in late-2019.
TOP PICK
One of the leaders in transportating and generating energy in Canada. Good contracted cash flow going forward. They should be increasing dividends in years to come. Also. they're simplifying their corporate structure. Pays over 6% dividend. Well-managed and likes it a lot. (Analysts’ price target is $54.36)
COMMENT
More of a utility stock. Predictable and relatively safe dividend, with no significant problems. Not excited about the sideways growth.
COMMENT
Enbridge vs. Suncor He's long both. Suncor is the go-to oil player in Canada. Well-managed with good growth. But he's negative on Enbridge, because they're so levered, and the stock has come well off. They are at least starting to sell off assets. They had a good dividend but were paying out over 100% of earnings. Payout ratio and the balance sheet is now a little better. Neither is high-risk.
TOP PICK
It is going to be more offensive going into 2019. There were so many headwinds on the company. There will be more oil getting out of Canada and this should be a good thing for oil. They reduced their debt. They are checking all the boxes. They say they are going to grow the dividend next year by 10%. Here is a place you can get total returns of 12-13% in the next 6 months. (Analysts’ price target is $53.83)
BUY
A large position for his clients. It has been thrown to the wolves as the Street didn't believe they could sell assets to rationalize their balance sheet, but they did it. It trades cheap. One of their thesis is that Bank of Canada and the Fed is going to slow down on their hikes as the global economy is going to decelerate. In this scenario utilities outperform. The Spectra asset is gassy. With 6-7% dividend yield all you need is 4-5% growth to get a 10-12% return.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 07/17, Down 4%) This got caught up in the Canadian energy space. They are doing all the right things. They are bringing down their debt. Their recent quarter was good. 6% dividend yield and expect 7-8% dividend growth. Sees good value here.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 15/17, Down 6%) They paid off debt and simplified their structure. Trades at a good valuation with a sold balance sheet. Good dividend and he sees 6% EPS growth. It'll go higher.
HOLD
Enbridge is doing the right things, consolidation, paying down debt, selling non-core assets, Line 3. In this market, starting to see its defensive characteristics hold in well now. Rising rates will have an impact.
BUY
It's executed on its plan to sell assets to reduce debt after an acquisition last year. They've streamlined corporate structure and, importantly, they got approval for line 3 in the U.S. This much-needed pipeline in western Canada will come online in the second half of 2019. This will be good for their future growth. Safe dividend that they can grow. She'd buy it here.
