Dividends have historically been a meaningful component of market returns. This is particularly true in Canada where dividends have comprised 30-40% of TSX Composite Index total returns over the past three decades. While dividend returns have been dwarfed by price returns in recent years, we believe this has created an attractive setup for dividend-paying stocks to outperform going forward.
