Telus Corp (T-T) is facing significant challenges, including high competition in the telecommunications sector and concerns over its dividend, which many analysts consider at risk of being cut. Although the company shows potential with a beautiful dividend yield nearing 9%, experts highlight a high payout ratio and escalating debt levels due to network investments. Many feel that the company's focus on monetizing assets, such as Telus Health, may provide some financial relief. The new CEO's strategies, including potential changes to dividend policies, can lead to positive transformations; however, many investors remain cautious. Overall, while there are mixed sentiments regarding its performance outlook, many see Telus as a strong dividend-paying stock but warn about the potential for volatility. The general consensus leans towards caution amid a tough market environment.

Rogers,RCI.B
BUY
He owns and likes both BCE and Telus. Telus is growing faster but trades at a higher valuation. Strong immigration will help both companies to grow. Both have good dividends. One issue is the ongoing debate as to why Canadians pay so much for cell phones and the government may interfere with legislation forcing lower prices.
BUY
A growth company compared to the three telecoms. Good dividend and more defensive than its peers. Rogers has ownership issues. Telus has invested in infrastructure that will pay off with revenues and lower expenses. He doesn't own any telcos in Canada.
BUY
He really likes Telus phone service. Not as sexy as Rogers with the sports team, but it's done very well. Again, buy stocks in companies that you use and whose work and products you like.
BUY
Steady, consistent dividend growth. At times, lower yield than BCE because the dividend grows faster. Diversifying away from wireline. Below the radar, it's in home security and healthcare. Core telco is sleepy, but these other businesses accelerate organic growth rate. Exactly what you want to own, right here right now, going into an economic downturn.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 30/22, Up 4%) Believes company has strong recurring revenue business model. Is a defensive stock that will hold up. Everybody owns a phone these days which increases demand for services. High subscriber base and strong dividend yield (5%).
BUY
Has strong dividend. Good chart. Good company to invest in (everyone uses a cellphone). Recent price correction putting pressure on stock.
BUY
Canadian telcos face some pressure in capex for 5G. But Telus is branching into various businesses like health and agriculture very well. It's a safe place to invest in and pays over a 4% dividend yield. A good place to invest money to withstand a downturn.
BUY
Favourite play in the Canadian telco space. Great job of capital allocation with spinoff of TIXT. Considering spinoff of healthcare division, additive to shareholders. Free cashflow starting to come up a lot next year. Roaming charges have returned. Expecting good results.
WEAK BUY
T vs. BCE vs. RCI.B 3 great companies. Lots of drama with RCI.B, valuation is the most attractive, you have to buy it. BCE is doing great things, becoming more of a utility over time, sets up well. Telus doing everything right, but high valuation, best executor, but not as much upside. All are buys, in order: RCI.B, BCE, then Telus.
BUY
Telcos are right up there in his dividend strategy. Don't buy it if you think interest rates will continue higher, but he thinks we're getting to peak hawkishness. Attractive time to buy, as you might get the tailwind of falling rates next few quarters.
TOP PICK
Owns shares in the company herself. Great business that does well in recessionary environment. Stable earnings with high dividend yield.
BUY
Extremely well managed.
BUY
Get out of high-dividend players? No, unless you think interest rates will stay high for a long time. Telcos are attractive and you need income stocks in a portfolio. Telcos will benefit from the strong immigration numbers, because those people will need to buy cell phones. Also, Telus has a track record of raising its dividend.
BUY
Great operator. Tentacles into health and tech. A good stock to own in this environment.
WAIT
Yield of 4.7%, growing about 6.5% over the last 5 years. With rising rates, the dividend looks less attractive. Dropped below 200-day MA, not a great technical sign. Wait for sustained momentum above 200-day MA. A keeper over time. He owns BCE instead.
