Whether you are new to investing or a seasoned pro, it’s always a good idea to keep an eye on the various portfolios available for you to consider in the market. In this specific context, we will be focusing on a selection of Canadian portfolios that have been curated for dividend investors. These portfolios are built on varying levels of stock screens complexity, offering a diverse range of investment possibilities.

A Closer Look at the Canadian Portfolios

The stocks in the Canadian portfolios are shown below and discussed in more detail over here. These portfolios have been carefully constructed based on stock screens of differing levels of complexity. The methodologies behind these screens are discussed in separate articles, and summarized here for your convenience.

I aim to provide updates on these portfolios every two to four weeks, with exceptions made during unusual periods or when I take a vacation. The goal is to keep investors informed about the performance and changes in these portfolios.

Notes on the Data

The data used here is sourced from Bloomberg as of the close of December 8, 2025. I have an interest in some of the stocks shown, which may affect my views on them. The terms used in the data are standard financial terms, with details provided for clarity.

A Word of Caution

While these portfolios and stock screens can serve as a starting point for your investment research, it’s crucial to conduct your own due diligence. Understanding each company and its industry in more detail can help you make more informed investment decisions. Be sure to verify the data before using it and only invest what you can afford to lose.

Please note that investing in stocks comes with its own set of risks. Stocks that trade infrequently or have low share prices may be difficult to buy or sell in a cost-effective manner. Furthermore, while quantitative methods like ours have their uses, they also have limitations. Factors such as the quality of a company’s management can significantly affect its performance.

Lastly, remember that the market is unpredictable. While we hope our portfolios achieve similar returns to those in the back-tests, actual results may vary. As an investor, it’s important to maintain a long-term perspective and be prepared for potential disappointments.
