Compare Preferred Shares Of Power Generation Utilities

Using these tables you can compare all the preferred shares issued by power generation utilities.  All companies compared here have a power generation operation either in Canada or internationally. List includes all the big ones like (Emera and   TransAlta) as well as smaller ones like ( Atlantic Power and Northland Power).  All types of preferred’s are included (perpetual, fixed, floating) in one table. We present the information in an easy, to view and understand format.  As a result you can pick the right share to purchase or sell. Power generation from renewables like (Solar panels, Hydro Electric, wind power and biomass) is the ultimate goal for most power generating utilities.

 

Compare Preferred Shares Of Power Generation Utilities Process

Each investor has a unique selection process. Consequently the same metric is viewed differently. That is to say, the weight assigned to the metric differs for each investor, thus resulting in a dissimilar selection.

  1. Some investors, looking for high yield over the next 5 years, will put more emphasis on the “Blended Yield” metric. As a result, the issue with the most dividend over the next 5 years is selected.
  2. More weight should be given to the “Credit Rating” metric, if you are looking for the highest credit worthy issues. That is to say, sacrificing some yield for security, is a good fit for the long term and “buy and hold” investors.
  3. Good value is indicated by the metric “Rate Increase Percent”.  This also highlights the stocks with the most room for capital gains, if rates start going up. A value investor may find this appealing.

Conclusion

We expect each investor, to review the various metrics, and make a determination on the totality of their values. While at the same time expressing their personal investing style. In other words we present you with the information and you make a choice you are comfortable with.

 

Two tables are provided here. Review both, since the information provided contributes to the selection process.

If you need more information on how to use the metrics below, see our how to YouTube video  or our post how to pick the best preferred share of a company.

 

Table To Compare Preferred Shares Of Power Generation Utilities

The following metrics are now only available on the premium version of this tool:


  1. Reset Date.
  2. Reset (Yield | Dividend). Represents the yield and dividend for the current issue after the upcoming reset. For this calculation it’s assumed the key rates are going to be the same as todays published rates. The reset yield is the sum of the key rate for the base term (5YR, 3Month, etc) plus the published spread. Since we do not know what the key rate will be at the time of the reset we assume its going to be the same as today. The ability to use a different set of rates during this caclulation is planned for a future release.
  3. Blended (Yield | Dividend).
  4. Rate Change Percent.
  5. Rate Change To Value.
  6. New Spread Change. It shows the effect or the current price on the issue spread of the preferred. It shows the percent increase/decrease of the new spread
  7. New Spread Value.
  8. Short Position.
  9. Additional Features.
  10. Years To Double Initial Investment. How many years will it take for the initial investment to double.
