TSE:T
Amongst the telecom players, BCE has its 6% dividend, RCI.B has a 3% dividend but perhaps a more robust growth rate and more diversified income stream. Telus is in the middle with a 4% yield. Doesn't know if it has the growth trajectory to give you superior returns. Sure, it'll be fine, but the other two are better bets.
Stable company. Rose last year on hype surrounding investments in agriculture and healthcare, but he likes those investments. Telus is using its tech know-how to expand opportunities in other business-use cases. Core business looks good. Further ahead than BCE on fibre build, capex starting to come down, free cashflow starting to rise. Dividend growth at 7-8% annually is best in sector. At these levels, buy at full weight. Yield is 4.89%.
(Analysts’ price target is $32.53)
Sector is low beta (volatility).
Series of lower stock prices suggests down trend.
If stock breaks down trend, good time to buy.
Not a good time to buy.
