#1 - TransCanada Corp. (NYSE:TRP)
TransCanada Corp. (NYSE: TRP) When you’re looking at low-risk stocks, the fundamentals become very important. The oil and gas industry can be a volatile industry, but there is always value to be found in stocks such as TransCanada. You can start with a balance sheet that is rock solid with EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) supported by regulated assets and long-term contracts. Other reasons to look at this low-risk company is its ‘A' credit rating and very manageable debt load. TRP has plenty of cash on hand which they put to work by funding projects that should propel their growth. They also have a solid history of paying out dividends to their investors. By investing in their future growth, they are helping to ensure increasingly high dividend payments. Their current yield is around 5.26%. Yet another reason to look at TRP is a valuation that is much lower than the overall market. TRP is trading right around 13 times earnings, as opposed to a ratio of 25 times earnings in the broad market.
