ENB Enbridge Inc
Enbridge Inc has a mixed profile — some signals are healthy, others warrant a closer look.
Why we rate it 6.3
- Yield of 4.95% is on the higher end but historically sustainable for REITs and quality income payers
- Payout ratio of 129% — dividend exceeds reported earnings, sustainability questionable without growth
- Current yield is below the 5-year average (6.50%), often a sign that price has appreciated faster than dividend growth
- Large-cap scale (>$50B) — established business with predictable cash flows
