Starting to invest in Canadian tech stocks and software stocks can be tricky at first. If you’re not sure where to start, keep an eye on this list of the best TSX tech stocks.
What you should know before you buy Canadian tech stocks
This list of the best Canadian tech stocks is meant to help you conduct your own research in finding the best TSX tech stocks to buy right now. It is not investment advice. No single stock or list of stocks will suit all investors, and we all have different goals and needs.
Whether you care more about TSX tech stocks with short-term capital gains or long-term dividend growth, it’s important to know whether a stock is performing well, making a profit, paying dividends or going backwards. Always remember that past performance does not guarantee future results. Investments can increase or decrease in value.
Our selection of top picks is based on the same criteria as our annual Stock Trading Platform Awards. This is updated yearly to reflect changes in the market.
"Best for" picks are those we've evaluated to be best for specific product features or categories – you can read our full methodology here. If we show a "Promoted" pick, it's been chosen from among our commercial partners and is based on factors that include special features or offers, and the commission we receive.
This isn't an exhaustive list of all the trading platforms out there. What's best for you depends on your own investing strategy, budget and financial goals.
We used Finder’s proprietary algorithm to rate stocks listed on the TSX based on price, performance, profit, revenue and dividends. Our fundamental analysis filters stocks by taking into account historical prices, dividends, revenue growth, (low) price volatility and profit margins. This might indicate a quality stock, but we do not guarantee the performance or returns of any investment.
To avoid smaller, more speculative stocks, we only include companies with a market cap of more than CAD $200 million. In order to better compare historical data, we filtered out stocks that have been listed for less than five years.This methodology no doubt filters out some good stocks, so our decision to include or exclude a stock from our list does not indicate whether it’s a good or bad investment. For more information about our algorithm, check out our stock ranking page.
The algorithm was last updated March 3, 2022. This list and data was compiled October 18, 2021.
