Technical Analysis 
Jun 5, 2026, 12:00 amThis summary was created by AI, based on 20 opinions in the last 12 months.
Power Corp (POW-T) has garnered a diverse range of opinions from experts, reflecting its robust position in the financial sector primarily through its insurance and asset management businesses. Many experts recognize its growth potential, with some noting a compounded growth rate of approximately 11% and strong underlying assets like Great-West Lifeco (GWO) and Investors Group. However, there's also caution regarding its current valuation, as many consider it to be getting pricier, with recommendations leaning towards waiting for a pullback. The company's exposure to fintech via Wealthsimple offers additional growth avenues, though potential investors are advised to be strategic in their entry points, emphasizing the need for careful analysis of the broader market trends impacting the sector. Despite some reservations, the general sentiment is that POW remains a solid investment, particularly for long-term holders seeking dividend growth and stability.
Canadian insurance held up remarkably well during the lockdown. POW owns 80% of Great-West Life which was up 26% in earnings. He projects an 8% growth rate. POW is super cheap at 7.3x 2022, and pays a 7% dividend with a 54% payout ratio. Trades at a NAV discount of 28% instead of the usual 19%. It will be a steady eddy in coming years. (Analysts’ price target is $28.06)

Stockchase DiscoverHas Great West Life instead. POW has quite the dividend yield. Not a bad PE. Price to book is below book value. Low interest rates are impacting these companies, and it's going to be lower for longer. He wants dividend growth and capital appreciation. This is a value play, which hasn't worked out for quite some time.

Brian MaddenYou could sit and wait to do the share swop from Power Financial into Power Corp. The two companies have been performing the same. The WestJet acquisition fits into their other subsidiaries. WestJet will be a private company and it won't be posting numbers going forwards.
PWF is a holding that she has for the income. PWF and POW are going to merge, which is driving up the value of both today. The merger is one way to close the gap between market valuations of the two. There is some thought the dividend will increase and the new entity plans to buy back shares. She will continue to hold as it an income stock. The yield is still over 5%.
