Every New York stock exchange trading day I’m posting a daily dividend stock or fund review. I’ll share the three chief qualities of just one equity or fund that could be selected for a dividend stock portfolio I’ve named the Safari to Sweet Success.
This week’s slot in the Safari portfolio is reserved for the Healthcare sector.
That sector includes ten industries all related to testing, diagnosing and curing what ails us. The healthcare industries are: biotechnology; diagnostics & research; drug manufacturers – major; drug manufacturers – specialty & generic; healthcare plans; long-term care facilities; medical care; medical devices, medial distribution; medical supplies.
Today I’m reviewing a long-term care facilities provider named Sienna Senior Living Inc. Its trading ticker symbol is LWSCF.
Sienna Senior Living Inc. through subsidiaries, provides senior housing and long-term care (LTC) services in Canada. It operates through LTC business, Retirement, and Baltic segments.
The company owns and operates 35 LTC homes across Ontario with 5,733 beds; and 13 retirement residences representing 1,429 suites in the provinces of Ontario and British Columbia.
Sienna Senior Living Inc. was founded in 1972 and is headquartered in Markham, Ontario, Canada.
I use three primary keys to measure dividend equities or funds like Sienna Senior Living Inc. (LWSCF):
(1) Price
(2) Dividends
(3) Returns
