Q: BCE and MG are mine losers and I want to sell one. Please advise which one would you let go or do you still think I should hold both of them and why
Thanks for the great service.
Thanks for the great service.
Q: Hi Peter and Team,
With the intent of better opportunities elsewhere, would YOU be a seller of BCE held in a registered account? (A significant loss, given the time we've held BCE)
Or, would YOU consider it a hold?
If a seller, would YOU add to our current holdings in Telus?
Or would YOU not stay in the sector for the time being due to all the headwinds it’s experiencing?

Q: Hello 5i,
I couldn't find an answer for this question, so I hope it isn't a repetitive one. If so, my apologies.
Given that BCE will cut the dividend (even if just for argument's sake), what will be the impact on the share price? In your experience, does the size of the dividend cut generally equate to a similar sized rebound in price, or a fraction thereof? If a 50% dividend cut, what might be the potential rebound compared to a complete elimination of the dividend?
And, finally, any sense of when the board would want to have that decision made?
Many thanks for your insights - much appreciated, as always!!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Any stock suggestions for replacement of BCE.
Q: Regarding BCE under performance. In your opinion do you think a CEO replacement is in order and might rejuvenate the stock price and give investors more confidence in management. It seems to me that the current CEO is "reaching" for growth by looking South to a more competitive market and it won't end well. Has the board at BCE ever replaced their CEO? If I understand correctly the CEO said the dividend was not going to change in 2025 and from your last post you stated the board might reduce it. Am I incorrect or is this another example of misinformation from the current CEO?
Q: Is BCE borrowing to pay the dividend?
Q: I’m considering finally selling my BCE shares and would appreciate 5i’s top five Canadian choices to replace my BCE holding. Please understand that I need to replace the income that I receive from my BCE investment but not necessarily looking for such a high yield as that is most likely not sustainable.. My main criteria is dividend sustainability going forward with average mid single digit yearly dividend increases. Many thanks.
Q: Please comment on BCE's latest result and outlook. Thanks
Q: is this a good time to buy BCE
Q: Hi 5i Team:
Before you reach out to that rotten egg to hurl in my direction for asking yet another question on this stinker of a company (!) let me say a few words in my defense! I spent the last 39 mins or so going through all the recent questions on BCE using your symbol search! I couldn't find the answer to the question that I am going to ask now!
Hypothetically IF BCE were to cut it's dividend by 25% ( currently at 11.58%) then what will be the stock price post cut? It is 34+/-.
However if the stock price drops a lot, wouldn't it make the dividend go up? I thought there's an inverse relationship between the stock price and dividend, no?
In any case, I know you are not too keen in speculating about price targets. Based on your experience with large companies that cut their dividend, what's your price target for BCE assuming it cuts it's dividend?
Many thanks.

Q: Can we have your thoughts if you think the dividend is safe given the payout ratio is in excess of 100%
Analysts are constantly pushing for a dividend cut which is favourable for the people that purchased for both growth and income.
Management has said that they wont cut dividend , but what other choices do they have . ? selling the maple leaf assets has been more then offset by the purchase of the US fiber assets

Q: Hello, I own above for my RSP... Obviously, I am disappointed with Telus and BCE and I am down some 25%.. I can understand BCE's poor management, but how about Telus? also in the dumpsters.
If I sell Telus and BCE, do you suggest that I add to one of the above as I want to keep my holdings to 10-12 stocks . Any suggestions?
Thanks
Carlo
