What the experts are saying about CPX-T

Signal	Opinion	Expert
PARTIAL SELL	Capital Power(CPX-T) January 15, 2019 Outperformed last year. Little growth here so not one of his favourites. Among stable utilities, he prefers Fortis and Emera--bigger with better reputations and dividend growth. Nothing wrong this this, but there are better stocks in this space. They had a good year in 2018, so take money here. Also the political picture in Albera looks murky (the Tories will likely replace the NDP), so coal-powered generation looks uncertain. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Outperformed last year.

BUY	Capital Power(CPX-T) October 30, 2018 Looks at it once in a while. Stock’s held up nicely in last little while. Dividend is there, and as investment firms raise cash, provides an opportunity. Cash flow should be maintained. An inflation hedge. Inflation gets passed on to end user, so cash flow is secure. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Looks at it once in a while.

TOP PICK	Capital Power(CPX-T) October 23, 2018 It's the top-performing Canadian utility yet little known. Has momentum. You're paid a safe, big dividend pl;us modest price growth. It plays into the carbon tax. CPS's assets are gas, wind and solar which are higher-cost commodities to produce, so the carbon tax will hit traditional forms of energy and benefit CPX. He sees a 2-3% upside plus dividend. Pays over a 6% dividend. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	It's the top-performing Canadian utility yet little known. Has momentum.

BUY	Capital Power(CPX-T) September 18, 2018 He holds this in his dividend portfolio. Its yield is over 6% and it has room to grow with the Alberta recovery.

BUY	Capital Power(CPX-T) March 29, 2018 The risk-off environment has benefited the utilities. He sees a sluggish growth environment for 2018/19. Their balance sheet is very good. It has a 7% dividend which is safe. It is a 46% stable payout ratio. He forecasts 6% earnings per share growth. Sell a put and get a premium. Then own it and get the dividend. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	The risk-off environment has benefited the utilities. He sees a sluggish growth environment for 2018/19.

DON'T BUY	Capital Power(CPX-T) March 7, 2018 When interest rates are rising, you want a company with a growing dividend and this one has it – although it is not growing rapidly. The dividend has been growing at about 6% per year. The share price has been falling and he does not see the power sector improving. If you own it for the dividend, it is safe. You could be passing up on better opportunities. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	When interest rates are rising, you want a company with a growing dividend and this one has it – although it is not growing rapidly.

COMMENT	Capital Power(CPX-T) January 15, 2018 He likes this. The Alberta power market is coming back. Had a lot of dislocation in Alberta over the past several years, because it built too much capacity. They went down and then moved to a lot of renewables. Shut down the big Sundance power plant. Thinks power prices in Alberta will come back, so this should come back. The short-term weakness is probably just market rotation. Should be a great investment long-term. Dividend yield of 7%+. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	He likes this. The Alberta power market is coming back.

WATCH	Capital Power(CPX-T) December 14, 2017 Just won a 20 year project n Alberta for a wind project. Some of their assets are being transitioned from coal. He is studying this company because the electricity market in this province will become more robust as coal is taken off line. He is doing more work in it. Electricity prices in the province may recover as they shut down coal. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Just won a 20 year project n Alberta for a wind project.

BUY	Capital Power(CPX-T) December 11, 2017 Has a nice fat dividend of 6.9%. Within the Alberta market there is a major shut down. The big Sundance coal power plants have been shut down. Coal pricing in Alberta has been depressed. He is optimistic that higher price will come back in Alberta, and this company is well positioned to benefit from that. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Has a nice fat dividend of 6.9%.

BUY	Capital Power(CPX-T) November 30, 2017 It is a good entry point. Their legacy business was coal powered generation. They are transforming these plants to natural gas and collecting a termination payment from the province. The yield is close to 7% and the dividend has grown steadily. The strategy is sound and the entry point looks good. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	It is a good entry point. Their legacy business was coal powered generation.

HOLD	Capital Power(CPX-T) October 20, 2017 Northland Power (NPI-T) or Capital Power (CPX-T)? This one has a little more non-sustainable stuff in it. As the outlook for that has improved, it has done better lately. He would classify both as in the Hold category, and a little bit lower on the pecking order.

COMMENT	Capital Power(CPX-T) February 21, 2017 In the top 10% of his database. Just acquired some new assets and it will be interesting to see how that will impact earnings.

DON'T BUY	Capital Power(CPX-T) December 7, 2016 They have been in the news recently. They have a lot of coal burning legacy plants. Alberta has regulated coal power out of existence by 2030. There is concerned over stranded assets. The government came to terms with them. There is concern about how this company is going to reinvent themselves. Carbon pricing is coming in Canada. There is too much uncertainty. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	They have been in the news recently. They have a lot of coal burning legacy plants.

DON'T BUY	Capital Power(CPX-T) August 9, 2016 The big issue has been the Alberta government and their decision to stop allowing production of power from coal. When that decision was made, this company was hurt the most, which was ironic, because they had the newest coal plant. The big question is; how much is the Alberta government going to compensate them for stranding those assets. There are probably safer dividend paying stocks. electrical utilities 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	The big issue has been the Alberta government and their decision to stop allowing production of power from coal.
