DON'T BUY

He would prefer other telco names. Even though the dividend looks attractive and is sustainable, would prefer the total return prospects for Telus (T-T) instead.

HOLD

He is holding this one for the yield. Not expecting big capital gains. Meeting their objectives. Feels the dividend is relatively safe.

COMMENT

Have had a lot of problems over the last 5-6 years. They have turned around Allstream, their acquisition several years ago. Not “best in class” but the dividend should be safe.

COMMENT

This one doesn't interest him at all. He is looking for capital appreciation and a dividend.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Jan 28/11, Up 0.45%) Had been going down and he could see warnings swing. With income, stock has performed brilliantly.

DON'T BUY

This has often been touted as a takeover candidate however it is not a good idea to invest for that reason. With telecoms having a clear leadership in the market last thing you want to do is focus on one of the poorer performing ones. This one has a big pension deficit as well as a growth problem. There are better places to be.

DON'T BUY

Likes the management, but quite frankly he thinks their prospects are quite limited. Would prefer a Telus (T-T) or BCE (BCE-T).

COMMENT

Everybody's looking for their Allstream division to stabilize but the jury is still out on that to some extent. Good healthy yield. As a utility, they are alright for the time being.

HOLD

Cut the dividend so it is probably now sustainable. Have some interesting growth including the Internet TV business. Someone may take them out.

BUY

Had issues last 5-6 years. Weaker numbers last quarter. Overpaid for Allstream assets 5-6 years ago. These assets are now starting to turn around and add to the bottom line. Now connected to fibre. Still not the best in class but expect it could trade up into the low $30's in the next 6 months or so.

HOLD

Wire line telecom. Have done a pretty good job of coming back.

STRONG BUY

They like it. Sustainable dividend. Good for a long term buy as interest rates cannot go much lower, but will go higher. Interest rates are a short term problem for them, (no cash hit).

COMMENT

Thinks the dividend is safe as their earnings and cash flow cover it. They offer consumer wire line and wireless services in Manitoba. Doesn't see a lot of growth. Yield of over 5%.

DON'T BUY

It is amongst the cheaper stocks on the board. The problem is it is a very restricted business. They the largest market share in their market of any Canadian telecom so where is the growth to come from.

BUY

Analysts’ earnings forecasts have now leveled off and are starting to turn back up again. Excellent balance sheet.
