This summary was created by AI, based on 84 opinions in the last 12 months.

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.

TRADE
Prefers over BCE (BCE-T). Better management. Growth strategy and opportunities are better.
TOP PICK
Up 103% over the last 52 weeks. Has enough profit growth to drive them higher. Has a 92% chance of outperforming the market, ie, it's not fully discounting its current level of ROE or the rate of growth in ROE.
WEAK BUY
Wireless business in Canada looks pretty solid.
TOP PICK
Likes the awesome fundamentals behind its profit growth. Has a 93% chance of outperforming the market. Which means it should be able to outperform the market by 20%. Only a 8.5% ROE level. Margins are on the rise. Strong growth rate.
TOP PICK
Looks at telecom stocks as defensive. The numbers on the wireless side are huge. Continues to generate great cash. Business is getting restructured. On a valuation basis, it's cheap. Trading at 5.5 X operating cash flow. Growing.
DON'T BUY
Wire line numbers were better than expected for Telus (T-T) but even more so for BCE (BCE-T). Wireless on the other hand was better for Telus, but not so good for BCE. These large caps, grinding sideways, do not offer a lot of potential.
SELL
Fully valued at $40. Not sure there is any potential growth from this point. Easy money has been made. Take some profits.
PAST TOP PICK
(Was a Top Pick Dec 7/04. Up 16%.) Still likes it. Getting some upside from the wireless side. Still some opportunity for growth through moving to the consumer with new devices. Feels the non-wireless business is not at risk as much as people may expect.
DON'T BUY
From a fair market point of view, it is expensive. Would like to see it pull back before he got into it. Voice over internet protocol is coming down and heaven knows what that's going to do to the telephone market.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 14/05. Up 3%.) Still likes the story. Likes where they are positioned in the wireless sector. Improving their wire line business as well. Trading at about 5.5 X operating cash flow. Very cheap.
TOP PICK
Under 6 X operating cash.Wireless business is really well positioned. Now down to the 3 core players, Rogers, Telus and BCE. Still growing and generating lots of free cash.
BUY
36% of revenues come from the wireless side. Rogers took out Fido, so there's less competition. Trades at 5.5 X enterprise value to cash flow before taxes which is in line with its peers and with a better growth profile.
TOP PICK
Generating a lot of cash. Has a lot of free cash flow. A low valuation compared to others. Wireless is at a very good point for generating cash flow.
TOP PICK
Really likes the wireless business. Very strong growth. Executing well. A big free cash flow generator. They're buying in debt, de-levering the company so you are getting the added multiple expansion because of the de-levering. Can grow 12%.
TRADE
Has had a terrific run. Quite concerned about voice over IP.
