The Dividend Guy Blog Podcast
Beaten-down stocks can look like obvious bargains… right up until they turn into value traps. We walk through eight names trading near 52-week lows, explaining what’s attractive, what’s broken (or feared), and how to judge whether a drop is a real opportunity—or a warning sign. The big takeaway: price is only one data point, and buying weakness without understanding the narrative behind it is how investors catch “falling knives.” YouTube: FB: Blossom: X:

Telus Earnings Deep-Dive: Is it a Buy?
The Dividend Guy Blog Podcast
This episode is a numbers- and strategy-focused deep dive into TELUS, right as earnings drop. Mike explains why TELUS used to be an attractive mix of a telecom cash cow plus “tech-like” growth segments—but why that story has become far less convincing as revenue stagnates, debt pressure remains high, and dividend growth has been paused. The core takeaway isn’t “buy” or “sell.” It’s: build an investment thesis, define your rules, and track tangible metrics. If TELUS executes, the stock could follow an “Enbridge-style” recovery path.

5 years later, is investing in CDRs worth it?
The Dividend Guy Blog Podcast
CDRs were pitched as a simple way for Canadians to buy U.S. (and now a few international) stocks in Canadian dollars—with built-in currency hedging. Five years after their launch, we revisit what CDRs actually are, what they do well, and why the “convenience” story often comes with a price tag investors don’t fully see. If you’re holding CDRs—or considering them—this episode helps you decide if they still make sense for your long-term plan. YouTube: FB: Blossom: X:
