STRONG BUY
FTS boasts 45 years of straight dividend rises. A core position of his. FTS will benefit from the reshaping of the U.S. energy grid which is moving towards renewables. FTS will have to rework their big transmission company from coal-fire generation plants to renewable ones in other areas. Great managers and fine future prospects. This will make new highs for decades to come.

Fortis vs. Altagas ALA is riskier, but it's starting to come into the cycle so, it's doing a lot better. Fortis is a steady-eddy withe nice free cash flow growth and trading at an okay 17.4x valuation, in line with AQN. They hold a lot of renewables, so it will do fine if Biden is U.S. president. It has US exposure. he likes them. He prefers Fortis. Some money has flowed out of here, so it's not trading at the top. With interest rates being a lot lower than before, all these names can trend up 10% in the future.

HOLD

FTS vs. EMA Emera reported pretty good numbers. Both have foreign exposure. Both have growth to them and over 4% yield. Operating risk, but not political risk per se. Both are fine holds.

TOP PICK
A high-quality and the most defensive Canadian utility. 99% of revenues are regulated. They made an acquisition a few years ago to gain U.S. exposure, so there's growth opportunity there. Pays a safe 3.5% dividend that the company will grow 6.5% annually till 2024. Their capital program ensures 6.5% growth ahead. (Analysts’ price target is $58.18)
TOP PICK
Boring is good. Time to be cautious. The market's gone up a lot, and the valuations aren't justified. A very stable company, 65% of revenue comes from regulation, solid balance sheet, and plan to raise the dividend. Yield is 3.54%. (Analysts’ price target is $58.18)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 30/19, Up 7%) It's a steady eddy that's increased its dividend about 49 years in a row. It's in an unloved sector, but he still owns this. He's sticking with it.
BUY

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks For income investors and for defense, this utility (which serves Canada, the U.S. as well as the Caribbean) offers a certain 3.63% dividend yield and trades at a PE of just over 14x. I say certain, because Fortis has no exposure to commodity prices and has raised its divvy for 46 straight years. Read Top 4 BNN Stock Picks to Buy this Summer for our full analysis.

A multi-utility operating in Canada and the US. 99% of their assets are protected, so this protects them from volume declines and they have no exposure to commodity prices.
