Q: Is Telus buyable today and what would be a good entry price?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Q: Bank of America downgraded Telus to neutral from Buy. The reasons are excessive leverage and the dividend exceeding cash flow. The stock is down 5%.
Three questions:
1. Do you agree with the assessment of the analyst ?
2. The Analyst making the assessment is assigned only one star on a scale of five according to my broker. Does the fact that the analyst is assigned only one star makes his prediction less reliable?
3. What is your recommendation going forward for Telus ? Sell or hold ? Is there more downside risk? Although the dividend was increased twice in 2024 is there a risk of an imminent dividend cut ?
Thank you as always for your insight.

Q: Hello 5i,
I'm thinking of selling my BCE shares in my non-registered account for tax loss purposes since I'm also expecting a dividend cut shortly. I'm looking to replace the dividend income as much as possible and I'm thinking of putting the proceeds in Telus (which I already own) or FRU.UN (not owned but I already own TOU). I'm debating whether a possible capital appreciation with BCE following a dividend cut makes it worth rebuying after 30 days instead of continuing to hold T or FRU.UN for the long term? Overall, my goal is to maintain my dividend income with this particular trade.
I'm also thinking about replacing FSV with HPS.A (I had HPS.A FOMO a few months ago but I'm not sure it's going back to its previous days?) in my TFSA for overall returns and I'm wondering if you have a preference between the two?
Thank you,
Lisa
