  • Bank of Canada Hold Spurs Interest in Telus Stock on TSX
    March 20, 2026, 4:12 PM EDT. The Bank of Canada held its key interest rate at 2.25%, citing geopolitical risks and economic uncertainties. The Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) has dropped 11% since March, amid market volatility. Telus (TSX:T) stands out as a compelling buy despite its recent challenges, including a 37% stock decline since 2023 highs and a paused dividend-growth program. The company's diversification into Telus Health and Telus Digital segments, both growing at double-digit rates, underpins future revenue potential. Telus carries a high debt-to-capital ratio of 65.5% with $1.3 billion in interest expenses, making the Bank of Canada's steady rates beneficial. The stock offers a robust 9.25% yield, supported by a 70% cash payout ratio and strong free cash flow growth. Management aims to reduce leverage by 2027. This positions Telus as an attractive long-term investment amidst current market risks.
