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.

TOP PICK
Operates at 4 1/2 X operating costs. Balance sheet is indecent shape. Huge in the wireless business. Growing at a tremendous rate.
DON'T BUY
Doesn't feel it's an attractive security at this time.
BUY
Hasn't really gone anywhere over the last year. The bid for Microcell is a good deal. Expect an increase in demand and better pricing if the deal goes through.
PAST TOP PICK
(A top pick Oct 2/03. Up 3.3%.) Still thinks it's a great story. Have tons of cash.
TOP PICK
Likes the wireless business. Very cheap. A free cash flow yield of over 10%.
HOLD
Voiced over Internet is going to be the key issue facing telecoms over the long-term. Competition is growing.
PAST TOP PICK

(Top Short Feb 23/04. Made 7%.) Fair market value is around $14. A very poorly run company.

BUY
Doesn't like the competitive environment or the pricing in the telecoms.
BUY
Likes, because it is very leveraged to the growth in wireless. Handset sales and subscribers usage are increasing.
DON'T BUY
Didn't like their acquisition at such an enormous price creating a large debt. The local and long-distance phone businesses are mature businesses subject to price competition from voice over Internet. Very difficult for them to grow.
TOP PICK
Top Short (A top short Dec 19/03. No change.) Came in with some pretty lousy numbers in the 4th quarter. Fair market value on very optimistic estimates is only about $14/15.
DON'T BUY
Their model priced is around $20.
DON'T BUY
Could certainly move higher on the short-term because of getting great benefits of wireless coming on. Long-term, doesn't see a lot of growth in the land line telephones.
TOP PICK
Wireless is the area you want to be in today. Trading at 5 1/2 X their operating cash flow and paying down their debt. Undervalued.
TOP PICK
Top Short Fair market value is under $10. A weak yield.
