Finally above water.

Hasn't done much in 2024 relative to the market. General malaise with US and Canadian telecoms. Lots of people buy it for the dividend. Seasonally, not the right time. Will probably hang in here, meandering. Doesn't see big gains.

BUY

Likes it. The Frontier acquisitions was smart. The stock is cheap.

SELL ON STRENGTH

It's capital intensive and very company. So, it's a tough business and returns on investment are very low. He suggests selling on the current price spurt and sell.

BUY
Secure US yield play.

Yield is around 6.5%, typically lower beta. Were having a rough time, but recently moved above the 200-day MA. A lot of this is due to stabilizing interest rates.

telephone utilities
PARTIAL BUY

Recent share price has been strong due to overselling after the pandemic. Lots of debt a concern for investors. Could be a good time for investors. Good treasury management has resulting in good debt load execution. Telecom demand not going away, however investors must weight against other options in the market. 

telephone utilities
WEAK BUY

Telecom sector's had a bounce, along with infrastructure. He's very keen on infrastructure. Likes it better than BCE, as US companies have a bit more in terms of growth possibilities. Not a bad decision to own it. US telco playing field is more competitive than Canada's.

BUY

Telco. companies not performing as well as expected. With pause in interest rate hikes, could be a good time to buy. Owns shares in company. Stable business with excellent dividend. Will continue to hold.

Unspecified

The price historically has been flat and the average price target is about $40 - the price is now around $38. The dividend yield is about 7% but is not eligible for the dividend tax credit since it is a U.S. stock. If you buy, it should only be for a registered account. Canadian Telecoms have done better than ones in Europe but have been under some pressure to reduce their prices.
