Canadian Dividend Stock Investing Portfolio Update: $7,785

Strong Canadian Dividend Stocks

Back with another Dividend Investing Update. My account is made up of 100% Canadian Dividend Stocks from many sectors. There are 30 positions in my account, and today I add more to my holdings in Fortis and Allied Properties REIT. Both have a strong dividend yield, and are currently in the red for me. I like to buy stocks when they dip below my average buy price, which lowers the cost for me to get that dividend. Bonus points for stocks with a strong history of Dividend Growth (Fortis, I'm looking at you). I also bought a Shaw (SJR.B stock with my left over cash, as they dropped down nearly 5% from my average price this morning).

If you are Canadian and want to start buying dividend stocks, Wealthsimple Trade is a really easy and convenient way to start putting aside some money.

Immediate 10% ROI... not bad!  If you already signed up for Wealthsimple Trade, you can still claim the $10 with this code: BL5OIW
