Telus Corp (T-T) is currently facing significant challenges in the telecom sector, with many analysts highlighting its high dividend yield and potential sustainability concerns. The recent 55% dividend cut aimed at repairing the balance sheet has softened some worries, but there remain doubts about the company's ability to grow in a mature industry. Experts note the need for cost-cutting measures and shifts in focus, including the potential sale of non-core assets. With earnings projected to grow only modestly, Tesus is frequently viewed as a stable income-generating investment rather than a growth opportunity. Many reviewers suggest a cautious approach, recommending investors wait for more clarity before committing to any further investments in Telus.

COMMENT
US Telcos are getting tired and this will sp[read to the whole sector. If you own, consider reducing your holdings unless you are in it for the yield. Feels the capital return is over.
WATCH
She is a little bit cautious on the telco space which had a nice run, especially into year-end. They have been driven more by the defensive trader had a need for income and stability. Expect the market will be looking at these a little closer and realize there are headwinds including new entrants into the harness space. This is one of the better names in this space. Dividend yield of almost 4.5%.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Difference between the regular shares and the A shares? Stick with the voting shares. Once you get into the A shares you run into potential problems. The communication companies are producers of net free cash flow. Charts of this company and BCE (BCE-T) are more positive than Rogers (RCI.B-T) or Shaw Communications (SJR.B-T). Stocks are cheap relative to their growth rates. Interested in this if it pulled back 5%.
BUY
Likes the telecom area because there is some growth and dividends are attractive and they grow. He owns 3 others. Can’t com up with a reason not to buy T-T
BUY
Excellent earnings this quarter. Good wireless growth. Raised the dividend and promised to keep raising it up to and including 2013. Wouldn't expect much capital appreciation as it is pretty well fully priced. If you want a nice tax effective yield will continue to grow, this is a pretty good choice.
TOP PICK
Excellent dividends which are rising by 10% a year. Expect they will merge their 2 classes of stock which will give them more liquidity.
DON'T BUY
Will be a little impeded in the next couple of years in terms of growth. He’d rather own this than a utility, or bank or pipeline.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Nov 10/10, Up 25.70%) Executed better than expected on TV offering.
BUY
Shaw’s Wifi strategy should be good for Telus, but it hasn’t moved. It did well because of the high yield. She likes it. Fundamentals are decent.
COMMENT
For income players, he would go to BCE (BCE-T) and this one. For growth he would go to Rogers (RCI.B-T). Because of the increasing competition, he is out of this sector for the present time.
BUY
Had a great quarter. The story for telcos is smart phones growth. Smart phone adoption in Canada is only about 35%-40%. Could see this getting close to 70%-80% over the next 2 years. (See Top Picks.)
BUY
One of the “best in class”. Competition telcos feared has impacted them a little bit but they benefiting from the changeover to data, which is now the growth engine. Telcos will be in better shape than cable because they are coming out with the fiber TV.
HOLD
Prefers cable companies.
COMMENT
Has a pretty good yield, but not the highest yield nor the highest upside of the telcos. Had a good run over the last year and has probably performed the best but he prefers Rogers (RCI.B-T) growth prospects better.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick June 14/10. Up 45.5%.) Would wait for a pullback before buying any of the telcos.
