8 Stocks Trading at Their 52-Week Low

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." Get the Updated Dividend Rock Star List!

Telus Earnings Deep-Dive: Is it a Buy?

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. If the math doesn't improve, hope won't save the dividend—or your returns. Get the Updated Dividend Rock Star List!
