Enbridge Income Fund HoldingsENF.TODON'T BUYDec 29, 2017Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Nov 10, 2018. Market Open.
Enbridge wants to buy ENF to simplify their corporate structure. In the States, Enbridge offered a small premium, while in Canada, they offered a premium. He suspects the directors of ENF-T are waiting for a higher premium (or that's what he would do). Pays a higher yield than Enbridge Inc. but lacks the dividend growth potential.
The parent company Enbridge (ENB-T) has a lot of debt. They are in pipelines which is a tough business because of environmental concerns. This stock, the Enbridge Income Fund is a subordinate to the parent. The chart shows the stock, over the last 3 years, hasn't done much at all. It is a yield generating stock, but doesn't look like it has any momentum. If anything, there is some slight downside risk. He would avoid this.
