SELL

They owned it and sold about a year ago since they didn't like the asset that AQN bought. They have cut their dividend and have a lot of debt. A good tax loss candidate.

BUY

Believes shares are turning around. Looking for higher prices.

Unspecified

It has a 22% floating rate debt. He sold it in the active portfolios. The CEO recently bought a big chunk which is encouraging. He didn't like the third quarter results and there are more interesting opportunities in this area.

WATCH

Doing all the right things, and then got hit last quarter. Ups and downs of the renewable space, higher costs to produce, and higher borrowing costs. Can't say dividend is 100% safe. High risk name now. Depends on your time horizon, will take time to bounce back. Insiders are buying shares.

DON'T BUY

Bought shares twice as high as current prices Sell half, take profits. An early casualty of rising interest rates with less free cash. The yield has jumped to 9.7%, so keep an eye on that, because if the dividend is cut, the share price will fall even more--though the price could rise too.

HOLD

Recent slide in share price tough, but will continue to own shares. Management indicating that will need to re-evaluate long term growth targets. Higher interests creating big problems for debt financing (using floating rate debt). Recent purchase of Kentucky Power will have to be purchased with line of credit instead of equity (not ideal). Pushing back investor day(December) which market does not like. Dividend is not sustainable at current levels.

COMMENT

Aggressive growth by acquisition tripped it up. Recent acquisitions have not delivered on expectations.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 14/21, Down 29%) Darling company in the past years. Recent share price decline creating opportunity for investors. 100 year assets that are not going away. Distribution business still attractive (buying and selling power). Believes long term investors will be rewarded. Continues to own shares.

HOLD

Hoping company performs better going forward. Current share price is presenting buying opportunity, but time will tell.

WEAK BUY

Kentucky deal has stumbled, an opportunity to invest at a relatively good valuation. Fairly nice yield. If he owned, wouldn't sell, and you could dollar-cost-average down. Dividend relatively secure. See his Top Picks. Yield is 6.6%.

DON'T BUY

Didn't like constant share issuance and rising debt. Very acquisitive. Low growth businesses. Didn't like the renewables side. For dividends, he'd rather own FTS, TRP or ENB.

BUY

Multiple could get better if the acquisition happens. Yield's gotten really good, very attractive valuation, growth rate 8%, 12.6x 2023 PE. He's buying. A sleeper to buy now. Yield almost 7%.

BUY

Pretty attractive here for the long term. Nice and sustainable dividend yield, good assets. Well run. Entire sector under pressure mainly due to rising interest rates, but this is mostly baked in.

BUY

Fortis question Fortis is well-run. In utilities, his #1 choice is Brookfield Infrastructure and Algonquin which offer stronger growth, especially AQN. Utilities have come off a lot given rising rates, so choose one with strong growth. All have robust capital programs and enjoy strong demand. Prefers AQN in this space.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 17/21, Down 15%) Very undervalued but a great growth profile. A stable and durable operation with businesses in contracted utilities and renewable power. This week, they announced the sale of some of their renewables; they can choose which business to sell or grow.
