He still likes it for the strengthening balance sheet and utility growth. It is a good infrastructure play and is still cheaper than its peers.

A good play, done very well. No reason not to own. Good future, especially with extra takeaway capacity coming online. Infrastructure opportunities in Western Canada are superb.

Instead, he owns PPL and ENB, mainly because of the higher dividend yields.

Growth starting to slow a bit, but still near 7.5%; when you combine that with the dividend, still makes sense on a PEG of ~1. Trades at 13x 2026, cheaper than most peers. GEI starting to bite its heels, but still works.

Debt is down, and the dividend is a healthy 3.64% based on a 55% payout ratio. True, the PE has been climbing in the past year, now just under 16x, but historically it's 17.33x. Though shares have rallied 18% so far this year, the street expects them to climb another 10% to an average price of $35.90. Note that as of this writing on the morning of August 1, shares were jumping over 2%, and analyst upgrades will likely follow. ALA is for traders and income investors alike.

Exposed to AI, the growth in data centres, particularly in one county in Virginia (they say it's home to 60-70% of all US internet traffic). They need server farms, and natural gas is the backup power. The local electrical power producer can't keep up with all the demand that everyone's buying NVDA for. Nice yield.

He is thinking of buying it this week. It has a solid dividend and trend and he thinks the dividend goes up. Is looking for a stock price in the mid 30's by year end.. He would sell below $28.              Buy 11  Hold 0  Sell 0

PARTIAL BUY
Altagas Ltd
ALA vs. BCE

ALA trades at 12x earnings, growing at 12%. On PEG ratio, it's cheaper. Yield is 4%, growing comfortably at 5-8%.

BCE is paying a wonderful dividend. PE is more expensive. No growth right now, perhaps will see 3% in a couple of years. At $47, still a bit of upside from today's levels. Regulatory announcements have to go well for BCE, still pricing issues, still a bit of wood to chop.

For fresh money, ideally split it between both. If he had to choose one, it would be ALA.

(A Top Pick Mar 03/23, Up 35%)

Strong utility growth. Very good valuation. As earnings move up, still trading at 12.5x 2025 earnings, estimated 12% growth rate. Dividend growing at 6%. 

As breadth widens in this market, so many areas to put money. Don't forget about a name like this, hit a nice single without too much headache.

Altagas Ltd

Turned the corner, righted the ship, financially solid footing, sustainable dividend growth. As good a name as any in the mid-stream energy space. No quarrel owning. He owns TRP instead, with a more immediate catalyst of a company split.

ALA is your best pick in the space, followed by GEI. PPL and KEY round out the group of names to look at.

Strong utility growth, balance sheet, good valuation. 12.5x 2025 earnings, growing around 12%. PEG ratio of 1. Decent dividend of 4% growing at 6%. Might start to slow in 2026. Getting close to the end of this run, but still a bit more to go.

Commodity tailwinds, strong utility growth, improving balance sheet, visible midstream growth. Still cheap at 12x 2025, 11% EPS growth, nice dividend. Continues to be a good place to be for lower-moderate risk capital.
