The Globe and Mail reports in its Saturday, Feb. 21, edition that investing in Canadian dividend stocks has been a great way to build wealth. The Globe's guest columnist Norman Rothery writes that The Globe's Dividend All-Stars portfolio provides a guide to the largest 200 on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The portfolio attempts to identify companies with the best combination of income, value and stability. The Globe gives Vermilion Energy a five-star rating. Vermilion Energy is a Calgary-based natural gas producer with operations in Canada and Europe. The company trades near nine times trailing earnings, pays a 3.8-per-cent yield and cut its share count by 1.2 per cent over the past four quarters to nudge its shareholder yield up to 5 per cent. Its price-to-earnings ratio stands at 9.34. The Globe reported on Oct. 17 that Desjardins Securities analyst Chris MacCulloch had downgraded Vermilion Energy to "hold" from "buy." The shares were then going for $10.12. The Globe reported on Feb. 4 that National Bank analysts Dan Payne and Travis Wood had rated Vermilion Energy "outperform." The shares could then be had for $13.65.
