High Yielding Canadian Dividend Stocks

On Aug 28 this year, I wrote an article on some of the Top Canadian Dividend Stocks trading in the US.

That article used the S&P TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats Index as the base.

Today we take a different approach.We shall use the Dow Jones Canada Select Dividend Index to discuss the Canadian dividend stocks available as inter-listed stocks in New York Stock Exchange.This index is “designed to measure the stable and high-yielding segment of top dividend-paying companies within the broad Canada equity market.” This list does not include Canadian Royalty Trusts.

That is very useful information, Teck Cominco Ltd has the highest % in dividend yield. How about the capital gain?

I am not sure about TCK’s capital gain.Let me check and get back to you over the weekend. Thanks.
