At any point in your investing journey, you should identify what your core dividend stocks are as they represent the building blocks for your long-term success. Rarely do we just hold 5 stocks in a portfolio. We probably reach at least 10, 20 or even 40 stocks at some point. Failure to identify the core holdings for your portfolio as early as possible will probably create more fluctuations in your holdings than necessary. The fluctuations will cause unnecessary expenses and potential missed opportunities.
My core dividend stocks were not the stocks I started with. It took some time to establish my core holdings and it evolved as I evolved my dividend investing strategy: Royal Bank of Canada - NYSE:RY, Toronto Dominion - NYSE:TD, Telus - NYSE:TU, Enbridge - NYSE:ENB, Canadian National Railway - NYSE:CNI.
