Q: Hi Peter, Ryan & Co.,
Emera is selling off this morning after reporting Q2 results yesterday. The company has also lowered its dividend growth guidance to 4% - 5% versus 8% previously. I currently hold a 3% weighting in my portfolio. Would this be a good time to add to my position? At today's price, I can lock in an almost 6% yield expected to grow 4% - 5% annually. This yield is significantly better than what I get on Fortis right now. Would I be taking on significantly more risk with Emera than Fortis?
Many thanks,
Brian
