Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly
We reiterate CIU.PR.A as a TOP PICK. The parent company, CU, is a diversified utility provider that trades at 15x earnings and under 2x book value. These perpetual preferred shares -- with a high credit rating (Pfd-2) -- have declined below their $25 par value, due to rising interest rates. As interest rates stall and eventually decline, they will see a some good capital gains. This affords upside opportunity over 30 along with a great yield. We recommend maintaining the stop at $14. Yield 6.6%

The parent company, CU, is a diversified utility provider that trades at 15x earnings and under 2x book value. The company has been prudently using cash to aggressively retire debt. The preferred shares -- with a high credit rating (Pfd-2) -- have declined below their $25 par value, due to rising interest rates. This affords upside opportunity of 38%. We recommend placing a stop-loss at $14. Yield 6.6%

As the Canadian Central Bank suggests no further interest rates are likely necessary to curtail inflation, we reiterate preferred shares as a TOP PICK. The parent, CU, is a diversified utility provider with a strong balance sheet. We continue to recommend a stop-loss at $14, looking to achieve $25 -- upside potential over 40%. Yield 6.7%
