HOLD
A good blue chip for the dividend people.
DON'T BUY
A challenged company right now. Has a lot of capital expenditures slated. Buying gas at elevated prices so their margin has declined. Hard to see how they can support the dividend.
DON'T BUY
Concerned that there is not a lot of growth potential. Balance sheet is quite stretched. Dividend could be vulnerable. Would prefer Trans Canada and Enbridge.
WEAK BUY
Chart looks like it has had a bit of a bottom. Probably supported by yield. Feels that interest rates will stay low for several months to come, so this is OK.
BUY
Has been very negative on this stock in the past based on his concerns with the dividend. Now feels the dividend is safe. Will possibly buy for their high income portfolios.
HOLD
Feels the dividend is sustainable. Energy business is growing, so they might be able to muddle through.
DON'T BUY
Has been falling because the market is not enamoured by moves made by the management team and is very concerned abut the dividend. PAying out more in dividends that what is being earned in net earnings. Prefers others.
DON'T BUY
Doesn't earn its dividend, so not sure how safe the dividend is. If power prices go up, they could get bailed out.
BUY
Excellant prospects.
DON'T BUY
Not a fan of management. Dividend may have to be cut.
TOP PICK
6% yield. Not currently earning the dividend, but it will in future. Has tons of csah flow. Presently going through a heavy maintenance period which is using up a lot of money, but short term pain = long term gain.
DON'T BUY
Would be concerned about their ability to maintain the dividend as they haven't been earning it. Trades at a fairly significant premium to book value.
WEAK BUY
As the energy industry includes, this company should improve. Risky.
TOP PICK
Yields about 6.6%. Believes this dividend is sustainable. They are hedged on the coal side. Feels they will win some contracts from the Ontario government.
HOLD
Yield is over 6%. Dividend is pretty safe. Positive feelings so hold it.
