Enbridge (ENB) is viewed as a solid and well-managed company with a strong dividend yield averaging about 5.5%. Experts highlight its financial discipline and long-term growth potential, primarily due to its extensive pipeline network and infrastructure projects in North America. However, the stock faces challenges, including high capital intensity, a fair amount of debt, and competition for investor interest from faster-growing companies. While many analysts point to a steady income story, they express caution about overall valuation and potential for significant growth. The consensus leans towards a steady investment for income rather than growth, emphasizing the need for caution at higher price points given its recent uptick in value.
Prefers TRP. Still, a mighty solid company and second-best of this peer group. This pullback is buyable. Yield is ~6.3%, growing at about a 3% over last 5 years (significant slowdown from a decade ago). Good line of sight to high single-digit total shareholder return.
Not particularly cyclical or prone to fluctuating commodity prices; 90+% of business is rate-regulated and take-or-pay. Slowly greening the company.
This is her pick today for income. Operates largest liquids pipeline around the world. Transports 30% of crude oil produced in NA. Nat gas pipeline transports 20% of what's consumed in US. Purchased 3 nat gas utilities, regulated and defensive cashflow stream. Solid backlog of growth projects. She'd buy here with the pullback. Yield is 6.3%; dividend increased for 30 consecutive years.
(Analysts’ price target is $64.56)Loves the business model. Steady eddy, dependable. Wonderful company for those looking for income. On the face of it tariffs won't affect it, as these are take-or-pay contracts. Essential as the largest oil pipeline in Canada, but one concern is potential company-specific retribution; Line 5, for example, still generates hostility. High valuation, wait for a pullback.
It enjoys little competition. If you sold the February $62 calls (now $64.60), so if you do nothing between now and Friday, you will get called away. So, you can roll that option: buy back the call that you're short, then sell a new call further into the future to replace it. So, pay $2.65, then roll it out to May, sell the $62 again, and collect $3.15.
Owns a serious position. Happy that shares have returned to all-time highs after capital projects are now online as they raised the dividend. The only potential impact of tariffs would be spot volumes on the mainline flowing into the US. Would be minor pain. And we don't know how long tariffs will last. Cooler heads will prevails, especially in energy which are so integrated between Canada and the US.
Pipelines are working. A place to hide if he's correct about where we are in the cycle, especially in terms of inflation. As for tariffs, they just raise the price level and the consumer ultimately pays it. Chart looks awesome, let it run and collect your dividend.
Only hiccup on the horizon, if crude and nat gas start to pick up, might see portfolio managers rotate out of pipelines and into more aggressive names.
Still sees strong growth ahead. Expanding in all its divisions. Doesn't see tariffs disrupting the US-Canada oil trade too much. Earnings growth targets are achievable. Still upside of 8-9% from here.
