Telus Corp (T-T) faces significant scrutiny from analysts following a recent 55% cut in its dividend, which, while easing immediate concerns, leads to questions about long-term sustainability. Experts highlight the company’s challenges, particularly its high payout ratio and the competition in the Canadian telecom industry. While some view Telus as a stable income provider, the lack of organic growth and potential for further dividend cuts weigh heavily on sentiment. The transition to a new CEO raises hopes for restructuring and asset sales, but many analysts suggest caution due to the broader economic pressures affecting the telecom sector. Overall, while Telus holds value for income-focused investors, concerns about revenue stagnation and high debt persist, leading to a complex outlook for the company.

TOP PICK
(A Top Pick June 27/06. Up 35.6%.) Will start off distributions at $4 a share and will increase them. Well positioned in wireless, which has a good future.
BUY
Of the major telcos, likes this one the best because of its growth and wireless.
BUY
There is probably another $10/15 in value as it moves through the trust conversion process.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 13/05. Up 35%.) Going into an income trust is the perfect structure for them. This will be the #1 income trust in Canada.
WAIT
They are going to an income-trust. A leader of the pack. Wait to buy, until it comes down a couple of dollars. It will have good distribution payout.
WAIT
Converting to a trust. Doesn't think the gov. will interfere. The best company in the sector and will continue to do well. But wait before purchasing as it is a little on the high end.
BUY
Telus is in the process of converting to a trust. He predicts it will be the name to choose.
TOP PICK
Did a great job growing their wireless business and focusing on what is profitable. Changing to a trust is a great move. Valuation is going to be very attractive. Will be paying out about 75% in January. Long-term history of raising dividends on a quarterly basis.
HOLD
If you own this, whether in a tax sheltered account or not, continue to hold. You'll have a very good distribution. One of the best run communication companies.
HOLD
Converting to an income trust, which has added about $10 a share to the stock price. Talking of paying about $4 a share as distribution and yet maintaining the structure for capital expenditure.
BUY
Has had a nice run-up, due to their wireless business, not their wire line business. Has been executing very well. Feels the growth in wireless will outstrip the potential decline in the wire line.
HOLD
Just reported a really good 2nd quarter. Earnings were revised up substantially. Has been expecting to see some slowing in the growth on the wireless side. Well-managed and poised to continue doing well operationally. 2% yield. Would consider buying under $50.
BUY
There has been a lot of speculation that they may turn into a trust. A very well run telco. Management has done a very good job turning it around. Growing their wireless business at a very rapid pace. Yield is about 2%.
DON'T BUY
At this price, it's a pretty expensive stock. Would be tempted to step into a position below $45. It is difficult to project 2/3 years ahead in a market that is as dynamic and as quickly changing as the telecoms.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 22/05. Up 13.1%.) People have been looking more and more for yield. They do have the growth and it is a less economically sensitive business.
