The stocks in the Canadian portfolios are shown below and discussed in more detail over here.

The portfolios are based on stock screens of differing levels of complexity that are described in detail in separate articles and compiled here.

I hope to update the portfolios every two to four weeks, with allowances made for the unusual periods that life provides – and a vacation from time to time.

A Customary Caution

Use our portfolios and stock screens as a starting point for further research. Be sure to improve your understanding of each company by studying it and its industry in more detail. Confirm the data herein before using it.

The stocks mentioned herein should only be used to supplement a very broadly diversified portfolio. When buying individual stocks, only invest what you can lose without consternation.

Watch your step with stocks that trade infrequently, and those with low share prices, because they may be difficult to buy or sell in a cost-effective manner.

Before dashing off to the market, recognize the built-in limitations of quantitative methods such as ours. For instance, less tangible factors such as the quality of a company’s management can sometimes help – or hinder – a business.

And while we hope our portfolios achieve similar returns to those in the back-tests, the market isn’t that predictable. Even in the best circumstances, we expect results to be bumpy and some individual stocks will disappoint. We would be pleased indeed for the portfolios to outperform the market over the course of a few decades.

Be aware that the author likely has an interest in some of the securities mentioned above and may trade them, after delays both before and after publication, without notice.
