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.
That sector includes ten industries all related to testing, diagnosing and curing what ails us. The healthcare industries are: biotechnology; diagnostics & research; drug manufacturers – major; drug manufacturers – specialty & generic; healthcare plans; long-term care facilities; medical care; medical devices, medial distribution; medical supplies.
Today I’m reviewing medical instruments and supplies industry firm named Coloplast A/S. Its trading ticker symbol is CLPBY.
Coloplast A/S develops and markets intimate healthcare products and services worldwide. The company operates through three segments: Chronic Care, Urology Care, and Wound & Skin Care. Some of its products are ostomy bags under the SenSura brand, ostomy accessories under the Brava brand, and SpeediCath catheters.
Coloplast A/S was founded in 1954 and is headquartered in Denmark.
I use three primary keys to measure dividend equities or funds like Coloplast A/S (CLPBY):
(1) Price
(2) Dividends
(3) Returns
