Power Corp (POW-T) is a well-managed company with a solid portfolio, primarily driven by Great-West Life (GWO). Experts acknowledge its robust performance, particularly in asset management and insurance. However, there are concerns regarding its current valuation, which is seen as relatively high compared to historical averages. Many reviews suggest that while the stock has displayed growth potential and significant dividends, caution is advised due to its timing in the market dynamics, valuation levels, and its structure as a holding company introducing inherent risk. Overall, experts recommend monitoring for price dips before making purchasing decisions, favoring core assets over the parent company directly.

BAM,A
HOLD
Well-managed. They typically increase their dividend 5%-8%. Some of their financial services holdings are not doing too well. Has historically been a dividend grower.
TOP PICK
Preferred G Series, 5.6%. Perpetual straight Preferred with a call date of Apr 15, 2021. Has an earlier call at 2017 at $26, which will drop by $0.25 to $25 by 2021. Good solid holding company with some good brand names like Great West Life and IMG Financial.
TOP PICK
This is the cheap way into Power Financial, Investor’s Group, Great West Life and others. It has gone nowhere so will be a beneficiary of the improving outlook for Great West and Investors. Should see some dividend increases - 4.3% now.
TOP PICK
Owns 66% of Power Financial (PWF-T), which in turn owns Great West Life, Investors Group and Parchesa (?), European holding company for several European corporations. Dividend of about 4.7%. Expecting the stock price will start to move.
COMMENT
When he became convinced that interest rates are going to stay low for an extended period of time, so he switched his holdings to banks.
DON'T BUY
This owns a large part of Power Financial (PWF-T) as well as some European communication and financial businesses and the European outlook is not so great.
DON'T BUY
Fabulous management. Financials worldwide are just undesirable. If Europe has bad news, all the global financials suffer. Once the European crisis is solved, then she would be interested.
BUY
Has a number of underlying operations, which are great businesses. Have consistently been able to deliver cash flow. Historically has had a discount to NAV of 15% but is now about 21.5%. Good value.
HOLD
Very attractive dividend yield. If you are patient, at some point interest rates will rise, stock market will stabilize and people will come back to these types of companies.
BUY
He owns Power Financial (PWF-T) instead, which is the same thing without a couple of Québec-based media assets. Derives about 2/3 of its profits from Great West (GWO-T).) Lifecos have suffered from market volatility a decline in interest rates. Any 3 of these companies offer strong total return potential over 3-5 years.
BUY
Will raise share price over the next couple of years. Family has to raise the dividends to keep up with the lifestyle.
DON'T BUY
There is no trigger there, no new acquisitions. Good dividend. Doesn’t see the value in the growth of the company. There is market related risk.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 13/10. Down 6.04%.) Virtually all the financials are down. Their interest in Europe has not helped them much either. You is okay and he likes the management. Hold.
BUY
Earnings have been quite strong and he expects they will be 10%-15% this year. At some point in time, people will get comfortable with higher interest rates and this will be in favour. Dividend is close to 5%.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 6/10. Down 11.76%.) Good diversification. Prefers Power Financial (PWF-T) now. (See Top Picks.)
