Four stealth dividend growth stocks, a trio of ETF turnarounds and what a $5.5-billion fund manager is buying and selling: What you need to know in investing this week

For Renato Anzovino, yield is overrated, John Heinzl writes. When the portfolio manager at Heward Investment Management Inc. is hunting for promising stocks, he’s more interested in a company’s dividend growth. The yield may be modest, but if the dividend is growing, it’s often a bullish sign.

The strategy has produced solid results. Since the Heward Canadian Dividend Growth Fund launched a decade ago, it has posted an annualized total return − including dividends – of 9.85 per cent through June 30. That tops the total annualized return – also including dividends – of the S&P/TSX Composite Index by about two percentage points.
