DON'T BUY
Interest sensitive. Had a downgrade on their rating for their debt. Made a couple of large acquisitions, but paid full price for it. Would also be concerned with Ontario's government transition regarding Hydro.
DON'T BUY
Prefers TransCanada Pipeline and Embridge. Feels the dividend is safe. Questions their balance sheet.
HOLD
Third quarter wasn't all that good. Fully valued. Attractive yield at 5.3%. Should be sustainable. Looking at 12½/13 X earnings. Expect higher interest rates in 2004, which works against this stock.
BUY
Charts show it is not a very exciting stock, so you probably won't get hurt in it. It looks like market conditions favour this stock.
DON'T BUY
Has had a nice bounce and is close to its fair market value of $20.
BUY
Don't buy the warrants as they only move on volatility. Stuck in a price range of $15/$19. A pretty conservative utility. Buy for the 5% dividend.
BUY
Nice yield. Very capable management and the outlook continues to be strong.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Can’t see any big upside and would prefer at about $1 less.
DON'T BUY
Trading at exactly their model price of $18.Fully valued.
WATCH
Starting to refocus more on their core business. Management is starting to do better.
BUY
5% dividend seems to be safe.
DON'T BUY
Just sold a plant to fix their balance sheet. It will cost them about $0.05 in earnings. Prefers the income trust.
HOLD
Their businesses are more market sensitive now. Well positioned in a growing economy. Long term hold. Buy at a lower rate.
DON'T BUY
At fair value. Expects dividend paying companies to lose their luster along with bonds.
DON'T BUY
Has performed relatively poor compared to high yield companies. An error has just cost them many millions.
