BIP reported a quarter which came up a little short of analyst expectations, but with a healthy hike to the dividend (which increased about 8% for 2018), investors shrugged off the results. Going forward, the company's strategy will shift a bit: it will be more active in 'recycling' its capital (that is, selling appreciated assets) and reinvesting the proceeds in higher return projects. To that end, it sold its 28% stake in Transelec (the Chilean power transmission company) for $1.3 billion at the end of 2017. It also expects to reduce the number of acquisitions it makes and instead focus more on expansion of its existing projects.
