Enbridge (ENB) for Growth and Income
Posted: Sat Dec 15, 2018 12:05 pm
ENB has been near the top of my To Do List for several months. I am going to move it the top of the list in January. Why?...because it is a perfect fit for our High Yield Income Portfolio.
ENB closed on Friday, December 14 at $31.95 < way below its 52-week high of $41.21.
The current dividend yield is over 6.2% based on their Q3 dividend. < and dividends will be going up in 2019.
On Monday, December 10 ENB announced that the dividend will increase by 10% in 2019.
First Call's price target is $45.03.

Enbridge is an energy infrastructure company that operates in both Canada and the
U.S. The company has five segments: liquids pipelines, gas transmission and midstream,
green power and transmission, and energy services.
Enbridge operates the world’s longest crude oil and liquids transportation system, with
17,018 miles of active pipeline that delivers an average of 2.8 million barrels of crude oil
each day through its Mainline and Express pipelines. It’s also Canada’s largest natural
gas distribution provider, with almost 3.7 million retail customers in Ontario, Quebec,
New Brunswick, and New York.
Recent News
Enbridge announced last week that it would be joining Norwegian gas system operator
Gassco in conducting a technical study to evaluate the suitability of a 350-megawatt
offshore wind project.
According to the press release, Enbridge developed the project to be an appropriate
power source for one of Norway’s largest gas processing plants in Nyhamna.
We don’t expect to hear the results until next spring.
Our Take
Our long-term outlook for Enbridge remains unchanged.
The stock is delivering a rock-solid dividend that’s yielding approximately 6% annually
at current prices.
Even the sudden drop in oil prices won’t shake things much, especially given that
Enbridge is one of the largest infrastructure players in North America today.
There’s another potentially bullish factor to consider, too…
When the Democrats took back the House of Representatives last month, the markets
braced for two more years of a Congress in gridlock.
But there’s one issue that transcends politics and one that both sides of the aisle can
come together on.
I’m talking about aging infrastructure, and I’ve already heard the rumblings of Congress
taking up this critical issue.
How bad is it?
Let’s put it this way, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) graded America’s
infrastructure a D+ in 2017.
We’re talking about roads, dams, bridges, and yes… pipelines.
The 2.6 million miles of oil and gas pipelines that crisscross the U.S. are depended on by
66% of the lower 48 states for natural gas delivery — U.S. natural gas demand jumped by
24% between 2005 and 2015.
And Enbridge will inevitably be a part of this solution.
Keith's valuation: Enbridge Inc. (NYSE: ENB) is rated a buy under $60.
