Telus Corp

BCE vs T Both operate in a regulated industry that allows above normal margins. Consumers are cutting cords and there is push back on cell phone bills. You are probably better owing a US telecom company instead. He prefers Shaw or AT&T.

A lot like the other telecoms there is relatively low growth, T-T pays a good dividend. He owns BCE-T instead. Valuations are on the upper end of the band for both these. You could expect 3-5% increases in share price plus the dividend. Yield 4.6%

Great company for the long term. If you are looking for more upside there are different places to look. Vodafone just announced they are going to spin out tower and the stock jumped almost 10% today. Would recommend AT&T if you are looking for more yield. Generally the dividend yields on Canadian telcos is quite low relative to other parts of the world.

Telus vs Rogers? He prefers neither. The valuation is too rich. He sold his Rogers around $72. He would prefer Telus as it is more diversified and does not have the struggles of content issues. He would actually buy Shaw instead as they enter the wireless space. He would buy all three on weakness, but enter Shaw today.

It's OK, but he prefers BCE. BCE is more of a national company, whereas Telus is focused in the west.
