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.

They made a big acquisition and ran into trouble, but that now behind them. They've endured Covid this, but there's little stock appreciation ahead. Hold this to collect the dividend.

Likes it. OK growth rate. Expensive. AQN and FTS are trading at better levels with nice growth rates and dividend growth. Pretty safe area, but a mistake to buy at the top of the range.

He buys utilities to generate income. Yes, they are boring, but this sector has had an incredible run in the last 12 months. This is overbought now and would take profits. Also, the yield has dropped to 3.3%, which is a negative.

Ontario's current government has made many changes to the Hydro board, a gong show. He is wait-and-see with Hydro and prefers Emera as a utility, which offers better growth and doesn't suffer government meddling. At its core, though, Hydro is a great business as a regulated utility.

They've done well this year, especially with less government influence. He prefers AQN, Fortis and BEP in this space who have better growth and offer wider diversification. H-T is Ontario-centric. It's okay if you hold it.

As a dividend stock Fine as a dividend stock, but not fine as a stock. They tried to do a US acquisition, but found out they couldn't. They have large capex, too. Dividend is safe and has been doing better lately than he expected, but that could be a result of a yield play. Doesn't interest him.

Pays a good yield, but there isn't much growth. She wants utilities for the yields but also cash flow growth. The Ontario government still owns 47% of this company so it's possible they could sell down and get involved in the company's operations.

Oct 08, 2019

Sell half of my holdings and buy a utility? It pays a 3.9%. The shares have done well since they abandoned a bid to buy a Washington utility. There's little growth here, though. He prefers Capital Power which is a little riskier and pays a safer dividend. Also look at Innergex or a REIT, if you want income.

This was supposed to be a sleepy, easygoing utility. They did a deal in the US that was not seen that positively. It trades at a discount now. He thinks the discount is warranted due to management, who needs to be trusted. They need to articulate their strategy and then have some wins. He is seeing better opportunities than this one.

COMMENT

Jun 28, 2019

H vs. CU Hydro One had serious issues, but a decent dividend. If he had to pick one right now, he'd pick CU. Looks a bit steadier. Hydro One is in nosebleed territory, and looks as though it's starting to come off. CU is consolidating, and looks to go higher short-term. $35 is a good stop level to sell CU, $22 for Hydro One.

It is a lot of natural gas, compared to other renewable energies. It has a fairly low environmental score. They are not a leader or ahead of the curve in transition to renewable.

He owns Fortis, Emera and NPI, so he has enough utilities. The business in Ontario is good with possibility of expansion. But the problems with the Ontario goverment scare him off. Good dividend, but weaker dividend growth than its peers.

It needs to break out of a very sideways chart that happened through 2018. There was a slight downtrend before that. Doesn't see a catalyst to spark a breakout.

There was a change of government in Ontario. The CEO and Board left but that cloud over the company is fading away. They provide distribution and transmission of electricity. They are trying to make an acquisition of a US company. If the US acquisition comes to fruition, the Ontario province stake becomes lower. The concern of political interference is overdone. Yield = 4.7% (Analysts’ price target is $20.92)
