Thanks a lot for the book. Maybe I can go for the sweep???
My favourite dividend stock is the only one I own – BMO (Bank of Montreal). I like it because it’s one of the big five banks and is pretty safe. I use it in my leverage portfolio so I want safety and a reasonable yield in order to help pay the interest costs.

I’ve got two I’m fond of:
Barclay’s (BCS) and Apollo Investments (AINV).
Me, me me! ;O)
My current favorite is Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS). I think that with the international exposure (Central and South America, as well as Asia), they are well-positioned to keep improving their revenus (and thus dividend) for many years.
My favorite dividend-paying company is Realty Income (O).
My current fave is BAC
I used to like AEP, but their yield has gone down a lot in the last few years. I think something like CSE is a good buy now, but it remains to be seen if they will keep up with the dividends of the last couple years.
My favourite right now is JNJ.
Manulife Financial (MFC), close second to Royal Bank of Canada (RY) and Investors Group (IGM).
Ah! a chance to win something! My choice is BAC or Bank of America with a dividend of $2.56 at $50.50 and sell a covered call.
I really hope I win this book!!! My favorite dividend is George Weston Limited (WN) 🙂
MO
My favorite stock is DSX. Diana Shipping is a dry bulk shipper.
My best dividend stock is Royal Bank of Canada ( RY ). I also like Watsco ( WSO ) for the growth.
RY would be my pick
My favorite dividend stock is Johnson and Johnson (JNJ). JNJ is one of the kings of raising dividends year in and year out, and has a beautiful balance sheet.
Home Depot is my favorite stock that provides dividends
My favorite dividend player is RY; a market leading position in Canadian banking, rapidly expanding internationally, and has a history of rising dividends.
JNJ tops ’em all.
ROIC: 25%+ avg/year
ROE: 27%+ avg/year
Net Profit Margin: 19%+ avg/year
Best of all: 14% dividend growth per year
Giggsy: “united is life”
Mine is BAC. I’ve invested regularly in that one, MO and JNJ for almost ten years now – reinvesting all dividends of course. But BAC has been great with its returns and building of shares. MO’s legal problems made it too jumpy for me, and JNJ’s been rather stagnant for a long time.
My fav. div stock is DVY cause it combines a lot of good companies who pay and increase their dividends consistently.
giggsy,
I love JNJ as well and own shares but take a look at DSX one year chart.
CIBC
My favorite dividend stock Royal Bank of Canada (RY)
My favorite dividend stock is ACH and also PCU. unfortunately I sold PCU too early. I also had TNH in my fake portfolio about 2 years ago and forgot about it and it gained over 400%. I’m so sad I didn’t buy it.
