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.
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.
