DON'T BUY
Utilities, pipelines, etc. have done fabulously well and benefited from growth in the Price/Earnings ratio which has grown from a typical 12 to 18. Very little room for expansion in the P/E ratio. You'll have single digit growth and a reasonable dividend yield. Would consider paring back and moving into better areas.

DON'T BUY
Thinks it's really expensive and sold all their holdings last week. Dividend used to be very attractive, but because the stock has done so well, the yield has gone down. There was a lot of skepticism about its acquisition in western Canada, but has proven to be a good one. Upside pressure on interest rates could weaken the stock.

HOLD
Getting a little bit expensive and wouldn't buy it for new clients right now. Made a good acquistion in western Canada. Diversified across industries. As long as interest rates stay low, it's an attractive holding, but don't count on big capital gains from here.

BUY
A utility holding company and is a growth company in the utilities sector. Because they have holdings in large diverse geographical area, it's a great utility to be in. Decent yield.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Very diversified company now. Reported earnings and they look pretty good. Wouldn't be an agressive buyer above $75. Mid $60's it's a real good play.

BUY
Q: Coming into an inheritance. What is a buy for a long term hold that pays dividends? A: Good long term hold. 2/3 of gains over time are made from dividends.

HOLD
Doesn't feel that an increase in interest rates will create any problems.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
One of the better managements in electrical utility business. Yield is quite nice but if interest rates go up. It could be affected. Would prefer it $4/5 lower.
