BCE: Data Center Expansion And Price Competition Will Shape Future Risk Balance

Analysts have modestly lifted their average price target on BCE to about CA$41, citing updated models that reflect slightly lower growth expectations, a small adjustment to the discount rate, steady profit margins, and Street research highlighting the potential contribution from BCE's newly announced 300 MW data center project. Analyst Commentary Recent research on BCE shows a mixed backdrop, with some firms lifting price targets around CA$41 while others flag risks around competition and execution.
