Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of May 28, 2026. Market Open.
Main problem is the probe into proposed acquisition; intensity of the probe surprised him. Other issue is that it has some market-based exposure -- when oil price drops off, this impacts the stock. No longer a bargain.
If you own no energy infrastructure, worth a look. But if the deal doesn't go through, then what?
It seems that for the last 15 years, everyone has said that natural gas is going to be the play. But it's never really come to fruition.
It's "fine". This name is a bit more specialized to the gas sector. He'd rather look to the peer group -- ENB, PPL, and perhaps TRP. Other names have a longer track record and a better path to capital if they want to expand.
Both really good, likes them both a lot. KEY has better growth now, but trades at a much higher valuation. GEI trades ~14x, with still a very good growth rate.
Don't do stop losses for good companies that are paying you 6-7% to wait. You get stopped out, the stock starts to come back, and then when do you get back in? If it goes down 10-15% (which is very unusual), or even 30%, it doesn't mean the news flow has changed for a good stock.
Huge supply of gas, so price has been depressed. Likes nat gas as a transition energy, and likes the mid-streamers like this one. Transportation, storage, blending, etc. Had gotten offside in marketing, but they have a handle on that now. He'd buy on this dip. Big yield over 5%.
Sees it going further. Likes it. Pays attention to its balance sheet and grows its cashflows. Some are concerned about % of revenues from marketing business. But with the Plains acquisition, marketing exposure is hedged. Very solid management, good growth opportunities. Hold, with no problem buying here.
Last quarter, infrastructure continues to see really good growth. Another really big beat. Beneficiary of LNG ramping up in Canada and getting offshore. At 2x EBIT:EBITDA, very low leverage compared to peers.
Very low payout ratio of 48% (like a bank). Volume growth driving better returns on existing assets. Nice potential for new projects, which is an embedded catalyst. Trades at 14.5x for 27% growth. Very good value on PEG. Yield is 4.61%.
Last quarter was a nice beat. Asset sales. Sizeable projects seem to be making progress. Low leverage, low payout ratio with nice dividend, lots of volume growth on existing assets. Lots of upside from new project announcements.
Natural gas plus getting it offshore are real tailwinds for Canada. Trading ~16.3x 2027, not cheap, but ~13% growth. Fair value once you tack on the dividend. Play defense with the nice dividend plus good capital appreciation over the next year or two. Yield is 4.91%.
Betwixt and between, which makes it hard to call. Right up against quite strong technical resistance, and right at FMV. Good things have to happen, such as earnings and visibility of earnings. Unless you can see those, be very cautious about taking a position.
If it could bust through $46, that would be good, particularly if the price of energy also moves up to support it.
Likes their stable cash flows, but they're not funding their 5% dividend from that cash flow. Concerned about their dividend, but you could do worse owning this.
