This summary was created by AI, based on 3 opinions in the last 12 months.

Hydro One, trading under the symbol H-T, presents a mixed bag of opinions among experts. One review highlights it as a safe choice for a Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA), especially during market stress, emphasizing the robustness of utility companies in terms of earnings, debt capacity, and dividends. Another expert points out some drawbacks, such as its relatively low dividend yield of 2.5%, which is the lowest among its utility peers, along with its operational limitation to Ontario and a higher price-to-earnings ratio compared to competitors. However, there is an acknowledgment of its strong visibility and clean operational narrative in the utility space. Overall, while it has its merits as a defensive stock, there are also concerns regarding its yield and valuation relative to others in the sector.

Great company and business. Trading at 18x. Growing at peer average. Better names in sector to own. Would recommend holding.

The outlook for utilities will improve as interest rates decline. They continue to raise their dividend, and they have a good track record.

Good quality. Likes it, but competitors in the space are a bit cheaper. Trades at 18x. Look to EMA, FTS, or ALA. As beaten-down dividend plays, the whole sector is a buy, but other stocks are cheaper.

Is being hit like all utilities now by high interest rates. Doesn't see a growth catalyst for this stock, so this is really a bond. There's demand for new energy, but building nuclear plants take a long time.

When it was partly privatized, it gave investors an opportunity to receive a yield, which has been consistent around 4%. But they're constrained and can't easily raise rates, though rates have jumped in the past year. This is solid for the yield, but doesn't see capital appreciation given where interest rates are.

Slow and steady utility name that reflects growth in Ontario. Good name to own if you are looking for dividend income. Power demand not going anywhere. Won't see major growth in share price, but is a steady hold.

Steady eddy. If you're looking for steady dividends to fund your retirement or your lifestyle, stocks like this are your baby. As bond prices go up, it puts pressure on the utility stocks. Rock solid. Utilities are not cutting dividends.

Some avoid utilities as interest rates rise. However, Canadian utilities have done very well due to the Russian invasion. So, investors seek defence in this sector. Valuations here are a little rich. He likes Hydro One for stability. He also likes clean energy like AQN, which he trimmed a little. Clean energy will come back this year after a strong 2020 and maybe not as strong as 2020, but still good.

Management has put governance issues behind it and instituted good policies. Good mid-single-digit growth, healthy dividend yield, favourable jurisdiction of Ontario. Good RRSP candidate. Not too much of a headache for volatility and downside. For him, better opportunities elsewhere.

H vs. AQN He's been adding to AQN. Valuations have come back in the renewables, with more upside in the next year or two over basic fossil fuel companies. AQN has a 4% dividend yield, valuation is good, Kentucky Power acquisition is another leg of growth.

It's performed well in the past 12-24 months. Ontario is one of the most difficult energy jurisdictions around. Hydro doesn't offer much growth, but it's stable. The dividend isn't enough to excite investors, so he prefers Fortis and others. It's okay to hang onto shares.

Very defensive cashflow streams. Compared to Fortis, Hydro One has geographical limitations being based only in Ontario. In terms of rising interest rates, it remains low and it is not an immediate concern. Look for a utility that has the ability to increase dividends annually.

He favours Fortis and Algonquin. H-T is a very stable business model. They had aggressive growth projects but they didn't work out. Would like to see more diversification of cashflow since it is very dependant on Ontario. It is a good, durable business. Would not sell it but it may not perform as well as others. Growth platform is limited.
