RE:RE:Dividend YieldOP,
US dollar dividend odds are they didnt factor that information on the automated calculator so the math will show a .68 dividend being a 3.5 % yield. other sites either use a constent exchange rate or what the dividends are converted as of that day.
Be mindful that there are some TSX listed companies who have US dollar books and/ or (some companies have one dollar books the other dividend) dividends.

The payout is $0.6824 USD per share. At an exchange rate of 1.26, this equals to $0.86 CAD per share. $0.86 / $19.68 = 4.37% yield. If investorline shows you something else, then there's something wrong with their calculation.
