The iShares Cdn Div Aristocrats ETF (CDZ-T) has garnered a mix of perspectives from experts, primarily focusing on its performance as a reliable investment for a portion of a retiree's portfolio. The ETF boasts over 90 holdings that have consistently raised dividends over the last five years, which is a key feature that attracts investors seeking stable income. Some analysts emphasize its low management expense ratio (MER) of 0.6% and the historical average return of 7.4% since inception, suggesting it as a strong candidate for dividend-focused portfolios. However, there is a noteworthy preference for other ETFs like XEI among some experts, primarily due to concerns over CDZ's potential volatility and the nature of its dividend growth strategy. Overall, CDZ is recommended as a 'Top Pick' by several analysts, with specific price targets suggesting significant upside potential while maintaining a decent yield around 3% to 3.4%.

BUY

Something for an education fund 3-5 years out, conservative with a little bit of upside growth and some dividend yield? Compared to TSX60 or a broad inch mark, it has lower volatility, better dividends and better performance over 3, 5 and even 10 years. Corporate profits have been tremendous over the last few years and are sitting on a lot of cash. One way or another that cash is going to filter out to investors through dividends, stock buyback's, mergers, etc.

TOP PICK

Steady performer. Compared to the TSX 60, it is more diversified and has about half the exposure to banks and insurance companies as well as a better dividend yield.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick March 26/12. Up 4.75%.)

TOP PICK

A Core holding. Especially in Canadian market it is giving him 80 companies in the TSX 60 plus more dividend payers, which have outperformed the TSX.

BUY

Has a lot more bank exposure than such as the S&P/TSX 60 ETF (XIU-T) but either one is fine..

BUY

For smaller portfolio, an ETF works better. Longer-term you want to own the actual stock.

BUY

A good ETF for a senior’s portfolio for income.

TOP PICK

Canadian dividend and income ETF. Focused on companies that not only have dividends but also grown dividends over the last 5 years. Gives an interesting mix with a mid-cap flavour.

COMMENT

Cdn Div & Income ETF (CDZ-T) or iUnits Div ETF (XDV-T) for share price growth? They'll both be about the same as they essentially hold the same securities. They buy large-cap stocks in Canada that pay dividends.

BUY

Good, plain ETF, which is his favorite type. Provides a steady, boring, predictable cash flow.

COMMENT

Dividend Product with Russell Metals and banks.

BUY

Canadian dividend and income ETF. Management fee of .6% or less.

BUY

Dividend ETF. Pays a nice monthly income of 5%. Also see XDV-T

BUY

Canadian dividend. 4.5% yield. Pays monthly.

BUY

(His Company.) Focused on companies that consistently grow their dividends every single year. A company has to grow its dividends 5 years straight or it is ineligible. Also has income trusts.
