A complicated one. It is in a downtrend. Partly because of a large acquisition that it made last year that made them leverage up and also because in a raising interest environment utilities stocks tend to do not so well as bonds become competitive with stocks yields. It was going to be a top pick today but changed his mind to wait until more information comes out about MLPs in the US and its ability to deduct taxes. Long-term his feeling is that it is a very good buying opportunity considering the safe 6.5% dividend yield. Still OK to own but he would like more info before putting a buy on it.
One of the two pipelines she owns. Attractive entry point now. They have a big project in Minnesota that is still waiting for approval (Line 3 expansion). Company is confident they will get the approval in the second quarter. Market doesn’t like the uncertainty. An attractive income name. (Analysts’ price target is $56.42)
A core position for him. Enbridge will continue to be good with dividend increases for at least three more years at 8-10% annually. They made a big U.S. acquisition, so funding that has been problematic. They have to sell asets, but they've been slow to. Basically, they need a lot of cash. DRIP, issuing preferreds and hybrids help cash flow, but they still need to do $3-4 billion in asset sales. Definitely hold, though you could buy a little more here if you have a small position
This has been caught up in the hate on the the Canadian energy space and the backup in interest rate stocks. AT this price you are buying a great Canadian company at an inexpensive multiple. It offers a 6% dividend yield. They have to deleverage their balance sheet, but this is the right time to buy (Analysts’ price target is 56.63$)
Enbridge Income Fund (ENF-T) or Enbridge Pipeline (ENB-T)? He would not buy either of these. He sold the Fund about two weeks ago. He believes prices will go lower for both. The company’s recent acquisition has stressed the balance sheet. He fears rising interest rates will push this value lower – especially for the Fund. He might go in when yields go above 12%, but there is a way to go.
He gets a lot of questions on this high yield dividend stock. He thinks it is breaking down through a neckline and sees further downside towards $35. He would need to see more selling followed by a bottoming formation to give evidence the buyers have returned.
