BUY

8.2% is a pretty nice yield. Old time telephone companies are trading at prices giving pretty good yields. Franchises are weakening to some extent but there will still be lots of customer services.

HOLD

(Market Call Minute.) Would prefer BCE (BCE-T).

COMMENT

Feels that valuations are better in Telus (T-T) and Rogers (RCI.B-T). Has done a really good job of generating cash from its operations. There is the worry about what happens when new telephone entrants come in. 8% dividend is pretty safe.

DON'T BUY

2 main businesses. Largest telephone operator in Manitoba and owns Allstream, the data and voice business for businesses and their long-distance across the country. Businesses are economically sensitive so prefers BCE (BCE-T) instead.

COMMENT

Good dividend but there might be some jeopardy to it. Prefers BCE (BCE-T).

HOLD

Guidance for next year is basically flat cash flow. Moderately stable. With a sustainable 8% yield, he would continue to Hold.

DON'T BUY

Very little growth in this industry and may have even less than a lot of their peers. Have issues on their pension side. Have to spend a lot of money to upgrade on their wireless side. Prefers Rogers (RCI,B-T).

SELL

(Market Call Minute.) Would probably sell this one and look at a couple of other telephone companies. (See Top Picks.)

BUY

Profitability is stable. Gross margins are strong. Thinks they will do well on the wireless side. 6.6% yield is secure.

TOP PICK

Every time this stock gets down to around $38 it bounces back. Has an excellent yield. Dominant in their market area. It is well within their ability to cover their dividend.

SELL

(Market Call Minute.) Nice company. Stock has held in way too well. Thinks its defensive run is over. Poorly positioned going forward.

TOP PICK

An alternative to holding Cash. Trades between $39 and $40, so buy under $40 if possible. Nice 6% yield.

BUY

It got way too cheap. It is an income stream, not a growth stock.

TOP PICK

Handling pretty nicely, pretty well all round business. Not exciting, but it’s not meant to be and gives a nice dividend.

DON'T BUY

Lower growth and a stagnant dividend and earnings. Prefers Rogers (RCI.B-T) for its better growth and growing dividend.
