Telus Corp (T-T) is currently facing a challenging environment characterized by intense competition, high debt levels, and concerns over its substantial dividend yield, which has elicited fears of potential cuts. Many experts highlight the company's recent lower performance, positioning it as a utility rather than a growth stock, with the current yield exceeding 9%. Despite the bleak outlook, some analysts maintain a positive stance on the company's long-term potential, driven by asset monetization and a focus on growth in digital and healthcare services. However, doubts about sustainable earnings growth persist, and while there is a consensus that the dividend may be maintained, many question its long-term viability amid elevated payout ratios and fiscal constraints. A new CEO has been appointed, raising expectations for management changes that could reshape the company's future.

BCE
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.
WEAK BUY
The telcos are an oligopoly and pay big dividends, 4.5% by Telus. She prefers BCE because it pays 5.5%. More travel means more phone roaming charges for the telcos. Also, more immigration to Canada drives growth as these folks will buy a phone rather than landline. As for Rogers, we'll see what unfolds, if Rogers loses customers to its rivals.
BUY
They had good earnings, growth of 8-9% better than Bell. They made interesting gains. Saturation is high in telecoms, so there's limited growth in this industry. To make more money, you must give value-added services. In this sector, Telus has the best growth sectors while Bell offers the most stable income generation. He own both companies. You can enter Telus now.
BUY
Believes is a good business that will continue to preform well. Lots of headwinds in macro environment, but would be a good long term hold.
HOLD
Great company. Tremendous enterprise in Canada. Perplexed by purchase of LWRK at a large premium, needed to issue equity. They're trying to become a different telco. Happy to own for income.
BUY
