“You have a pair of pants. In the left pocket, you have $100. You take $1 out of the left pocket and put in the right pocket. You now have $101. There is no diminution of dollars in your left pocket. That is one magic pair of pants.”

MP Market Review – December 3, 2021

Posted by BM on December 06, 2021

Each week we will comment on some of the significant events from the past week for companies on ‘The List’ and update the numbers.

This past week was when the big Banks on ‘The List’ reported their Q4 earnings. No surprise, we saw Bank of Nova Scotia, Royal Bank and Toronto Dominion Bank all announce double-digit dividend increases and stock buy backs for next year. Since the banking regulator lifted pandemic related restrictions back on November 4, we were waiting to see how much the increases would be and the Banks delivered.

TFI International announced another acquisition when they purchased D&D Sexton. TFII-T has been our best Year-to-Date performer on ‘The List’, up over 100% since the beginning of the year.

Below is a snapshot of ‘The List’ from last Friday’s close. For a sortable version of ‘The List’ please click on The List menu item.

‘The List’ is not meant to be a template for investors to copy exactly. Rather, its purpose is to provide investment ideas and a real-time illustration of dividend growth investing in action. It is not a ‘Buy List’, only a starting point for our analysis and discussion.
