Not an exciting business, it’s a declining business. Has a high dividend. Paying its earnings out to shareholders, not investing back in company. Not a high risk or growth business.
A good way if you want some US exposure is through dividend paying stocks. Historically dividends grow and hopefully the stocks will go up. The best place for dividends in the US is in the utility area. He likes both American Electric Power (AEP-N) which has good growth and good dividends and Iowa Telecom (IWA-N) which pays around 8/9%.
A rural wire line telephone company. Wire line is a shrinking business but they've made some small acquisitions to build their base. Not a lot of capital expenditures so they are paying the income out to shareholders. Nice stock to own if you are looking for US income.
