This summary was created by AI, based on 22 opinions in the last 12 months.

Power Corp (POW-T) is a well-regarded Canadian asset manager, primarily anchored by its significant holdings in Great-West Life (GWO) and Investors Group (IGM). The consensus among analysts indicates a growing concern regarding the stock's current valuation, with several experts noting that it appears expensive compared to historical price-to-book ratios. While analysts commend the company for its solid performance and dividend growth, many express a preference for acquiring more direct and potentially less valued assets, like GWO. Recent market trends reflect a mix of sentiment: although the stock exhibited strong momentum and has outperformed many peers, there's caution suggesting a potential correction or pullback could provide a better entry point for new investors. Overall, while the company showcases stability and robust income through dividends, the opinion is divided on the merits of immediate investment at its current price levels.

BUY
On his radar. Simplified structure. Potential for dividend increases. Likes management steps over last 3-5 years. Well run. If he were compelled to sell one of his positions, this would be a replacement candidate. Just over book value, yield over 5%.
HOLD
Great stock. Came off its strong rally. Beautiful dividend, pretty low valuation. Subsidiaries have been doing well. Can't go wrong over time. Problem now is not showing growth. Better names for new capital. If you own it, hold and add at lower levels.
TOP PICK
It was dead money for a long time, but insurance is now a better pace to be and the company has been slimmed down. POW always traded at a discount to NAV , but that will close with rising rates. It pays over a 5% dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $46.78)
HOLD
Company has attractive dividend yield. Working to simplify business structure which is a positive. Stock price could be cheaper, but is priced fairly at the moment.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 27/21, Down 0.7%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with POW has triggered its stop at $39. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.
TOP PICK
Decent yield. Nice discount to book value. Key attraction is radical change in management. Lots of potential. Yield is 4.32%. (Analysts’ price target is $47.38)
SELL
Good dividend, poor stock performance. Massive underperformer compared to companies like SLF, which he much prefers. You'll get better dividend growth and profitability growth from other insurers or Canadian banks. Yield is 4.4%.
BUY
Super cheap, in the sweet spot. Trades at 8.5x earnings, decent growth rate, nice dividend. Its engines of growth (its subsidiaries) are great places to be. Probably will raise dividend over time. Don't have to worry if markets go down. Yield is 4.2%.
BUY
Picked up its game. Higher end of its range, but a healthy dividend around 4.7%. Has an interest in Wealthsimple. Long-term growth stock, if not tremendously high. Growth at a discount to peers.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 27/21, Up 6.6%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with POW is progressing well. We now recommend trailing up the stop (from $34) to $39.
BUY
They own Great-West Life and others. They are rationalizing the business more which has really helped. He expects it to raise dividends. Happy to hold this longer.
BUY
Likes it. Stock is very cheap. Discount to book value. Nice yield. One of its businesses is an insurance company, which will do well with interest rate increases. European side has some concerns. Broken out from a key technical point. Nice upside of more than 100%.
BUY
Has great assets and managers. Pays a strong dividend. It's a blue chip to buy and tuck away. It compounds capital over time and grows its dividend over time.
BUY

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Comfortable with it. Still cheap and has done well. The stock has been quiet. EPS has been flat for a decade but this is picking up. The dividend is safe and solid. Good for income. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

BUY
Really likes the investment management sector. It should be pretty good business in a time of a decent market and reflation. When a group gets into gear, you want to look at the leaders.
