Bell Aliant Inc BLIAF

Is it a good time to get in?

[bullvestor]

Planning to buy BCE and hold for a longer term (certainly past Oct 2).

I read the three options and get that. However, I read latest press release but couldn't understand.
 Wondering if I should buy BA and let it convert to BCE or just buy BCE?

Appreciate your feedback.

BCE has a Dividend Yield of 5.16% and a P/E of18.0x But Telus has a Dividend of 3.87% and a P/E of 17.5x Over a past two year investment period Telus gives you 17.66% Bell gives you 11.25 Going forward I like Telus & will be divesting some of the Bell shares over to Telus, Quebeccor (fourth Mobile Player?) and just possibly Manitoba Tel (possible buy out by BCE or Telus?)

"Wondering if I should buy BA and let it convert to BCE or just buy BCE?" Keeep in mind  that if you buy BA and let it coonvert to BCE you lose both dividends in the next round.
