Improved Dogs of TSX (Canada)

A few modifications and improvements were done to create a passive investing model meant to provide superior results than the market. In order to preserve gains and mitigate losses during market contraction, this model makes use of market timing to switch to other asset types when there is an increased risk to hold equities.
