This summary was created by AI, based on 11 opinions in the last 12 months.

Fortis Inc. (FTS-T) is primarily regarded as a solid income stock, appealing for its reliable dividend yield and potential for free cash flow growth through 2030. Experts highlight the company's long history of increasing dividends, with reviews indicating a robust capital spending plan that supports future growth. Despite being a core holding for many, opinions vary on its current valuation, with some suggesting it may be overpriced at 18x PE relative to its growth potential of 5-7%. Analysts acknowledge the company's strong position within the utility sector, especially in regions benefitting from data center developments, although some express caution around buying at current prices, recommending to wait for more favorable entry points. Overall, it is viewed as a low-risk investment suitable for long-term holders, providing stable returns in fluctuating market conditions.

PAST TOP PICK

Fortis Inc.(FTS.TO)

Oct 10, 2019
(A Top Pick Oct 24/18, Up 33%) Good dividend yield, defensive business, mid-single digit level of growth. When the market gives you a gift, sometimes you need to lock it in. Valuation is now stretched, because though stock price has appreciated, earnings have not kept pace.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Fortis Inc.(FTS.TO)

Sep 09, 2019
He has done extremely well on it over the last number of years. In the last quarter they were behind expectations but it is just weather related. They are diversified. They have positioned themselves so a lot of operations are in the US now. He thinks he will see future dividend increases coming out of this company. Take a long term view.

Fortis Inc.(FTS.TO)

Sep 03, 2019
It's done very well this year. But as an interest-sensitive stock, they've all fed off a massive decline of bond yields. He will sell a bit of this. The dividend isn't high enough for him.

COMMENT

Fortis Inc.(FTS.TO)

Aug 28, 2019

Sell 25% of his telecoms and utilities like Fortis, and buy REITs? It's a good plan to diversify. Summit REIT is good. The utilities like Emera, Fortis and NPI-T are great stocks to own now--they're regulated, earnings growth backed in and the multiples are reasonable. They still have upside, and so do the REITs.

(A Top Pick Aug 09/18, Up 33%) When he recommended it, there was volatility. You get a dividend, but also growth. Interest rates moving down, the REITs and utilities have performed well. Doesn't own it anymore since the stock grew so well. Good for income investors.

A boring stock. Has raised its dividend 46 years in a row, plus the stock has gone up. A steady eddy. It won't miss a beat in a recession. It's the opposite of volatile and steady eddy. (Analysts’ price target is $54.17)

It is well above the 200-day moving average. It is going to correct. If you want to collect the dividend is OK but if you are a growth investor you should sell.

(A Top Pick Mar 22/19, Up 5%) Been on an uptrend since January. It's making a new high. Buy it--it'll keep making new highs, but if interest rates rise, you don't want to own utilities.
