Premium contentOur PAST TOP PICK with ACO.X has triggered its stop at $40. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time. This will result in a net investment loss of 6%, when combined with the previous buy recommendation.
It is trading close to its Book Value but pretty close to its all time low in valuation.
Ross Healy(A Top Pick May 20/22, Down 7%)
Has 20 years of dividend increases. But rising interest rates are competition for dividend-paying utilities. That said, long term this is a good company.
Darren SissonsPremium contentWe again reiterate this Canadian infrastructure utility, who just acquired a sizeable portfolio of wind and solar assets in Alberta and Ontario as a TOP PICK. They inked a 15 year renewable energy deal with Microsoft. It trades at 1.2x book and at 12x earnings. We like that cash reserves are growing while paying down debt and buying shares. It has a good dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 55% of cash flow. We recommend maintaining the trailing the stop at $40, looking to achieve $50 -- upside over 16%. Yield 4.2%
