DON'T BUY	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) March 7, 2019 It is a well established business. It is diversified. There is the wealth management business. The dividend is safe.

DON'T BUY	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) February 26, 2019 They have an emerging robo-advisor business among their other businesses, GWL and Investors Group which are sluggish growers. Unless something macro in the insurance space (interest rate hikes) or an acquisition happens, PWF will simply grind along. Mutual funds are stagnating or declining (Investors Group charges very high fees). Safe dividend, but he doesn't see much capital appreciation here. finance/leasing 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	They have an emerging robo-advisor business among their other businesses, GWL and Investors Group which are sluggish growers.

HOLD	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) February 22, 2019 The Power franchise has had some challenges. The dividend is safe and management knows they need to make some changes. The Investor's Group side is under competitive pressure. With a couple of moves the company value could increase sharply. He would continue to hold.

BUY	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) February 11, 2019 POW-T vs. PWF-T. Great West Life is the underlying company that supports both of these stocks. They are basically the same price. POW-T trades at a discount to GWO-T. You need to believe in GWO-T to own these two companies. finance/leasing 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	POW-T vs. PWF-T.

COMMENT	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) January 30, 2019 Pays a good dividend. Their underlying business insurance and investments, which have been under pressure, though good long-term.

COMMENT	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) January 15, 2019 Some people put more of a premium on Power Corp than Power Financial. Longer term, Great West Life is probably a sustainable investment. Mutual funds are under increasing competition. He leans slightly toward Power Corp, but Power Financial has a slightly enhanced dividend. Both dividends are well covered. Future dividend hikes will depend on how they position themselves going forward, and this will take time to show up. finance/leasing 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Some people put more of a premium on Power Corp than Power Financial.

DON'T BUY	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) January 14, 2019 PWF-T vs. POW-T. The parent vs. the subsidiary. He would go to PWF-T. We saw a bit of a pull back.

TOP PICK	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) December 19, 2018 They had a negative Q3 on their Pargazi contribution but their main business like Great-West Life and Investors Group were very solid. Very defensive name . Pays a very generous 6.7% dividend trading at 7 1/2 times earnings. Safe dividend and growth of 6%. If the market goes against you, something not to worry about. (Analysts’ price target is $33.29) finance/leasing 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	They had a negative Q3 on their Pargazi contribution but their main business like Great-West Life and Investors Group were very solid.

COMMENT	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) December 11, 2018 POW or PWF for income? Owns PWF for the yield. Neither stock has done much. PWF owns Investors Group and GWL, a solid insurance company. IG had to disclose their fee structure, which was a negative, but is now slowly improving. You can own PWF for the yield, but there's been little price movement. POW owns PWF. The discounts to NAV are wide; she's unsure what the catalyst will be to narrow that. Both dividends are safe. finance/leasing 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	POW or PWF for income? Owns PWF for the yield.

DON'T BUY	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) September 20, 2018 Investors may be expressing frustration with some investments. This one has a large portion tied to the insurance business as well as the wealth management business. Investors have to know what is the catalyst here. 70% of cash flows come from Great West Life. The quality of earnings is driven by tax cuts and relaxed actuarial assumptions. This stock will not oscillate much but you will see a sustainable dividend. finance/leasing 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Investors may be expressing frustration with some investments.

SELL	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) August 30, 2018 Model price is $45.06. 54% upside but there is no catalyst for this stock to get moving. It is dead money. If it is trading below its EBV -5, there is something wrong with its balance sheet and this one is too big relative to its earnings. The regulators are really rough in the financial industry.

HOLD	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) July 26, 2018 It has some similarities to ENB-T. The dividend is seductive. Investors are wondering where the growth is going to come from. There have been better places to park capital for share price appreciation. He prefers BCE-T to this one [mentioned by caller]. finance/leasing 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	It has some similarities to ENB-T.

DON'T BUY	Power Financial Corp(PWF-T) July 4, 2018 He owned Power Financial years ago and was a great holding up to the financial crisis. Since then it has gone sideways. He keeps waiting for a catalyst to jump start it. They own Great West Life and Investors Group, but within the life insurance group they bought a US insurance company that has not been successful. He would prefer Sunlife (SLF-T). finance/leasing 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	He owned Power Financial years ago and was a great holding up to the financial crisis. Since then it has gone sideways.
