Banks
Canada's banking sector is dominated by the Big Six — a protected oligopoly known for wide moats, steady dividends and heavy exposure to the Canadian consumer and housing market. Because a lending balance sheet doesn't produce 'free cash flow' the usual way, we judge banks on earnings yield, return on equity (ROE) and dividend coverage rather than FCF yield.
