Dividend Announcements: May 23-29, 2026
Dividend increases include a boost of 6.67% from Dividend Champion Donaldson and a raise of 4.17% from Dividend King Lowe's. Canadian banks BMO, RY, and TD announced modest dividend hikes but are overvalued, with compressed yields near 3%. CSWC declared a special dividend, but its payout ratio above 100% and low quality and safety scores signal caution.

EPS growth expectations are strong, with analyst consensus forecasting +20% YoY EPS growth for FY26 and upward earnings revisions outpacing downgrades.

Bank of Montreal: Looking At Overvaluation And Q2
Bank of Montreal stock currently trades at an unprecedented 17x P/E, well above its historical 10-12x range. BMO's recent outperformance is driven by expectations of U.S.-centric growth post-Bank of the West integration, but I remain skeptical of sustained high returns. I maintain a Hold rating on BMO with a fair value target of $140 CAD/share, citing valuation risks and macro sensitivity.
