Difference

-1.2%

Equal-weighted across the 59 stocks this screen matched when it was published, in USD, price return only. All 59 are priced today.

What it screens for

  • Dividend yield: Over 5%
Run it on today's market →

What it matches today may differ from the 59 stocks above. That difference is the point of running it.

What it finds

Everything yielding over 5%, with no test of whether the company can afford it. Published as the control for the covered-dividend screen, not as a recommendation.

How it works

One filter: dividend yield above 5%. Nothing else. That is the entire screen, and the point of it.

How to use it

Read this one against its sibling, Dividends the earnings can cover. Both are scored from the same day on the same terms, so the gap between them over time is evidence about whether a coverage test earns its place. If this screen wins, the coverage test was costing return for nothing.

What's different about it

A screen published in order to be beaten. The value is not the list, it is the comparison, which is only possible because both baskets are frozen and measured the same way.

Limitations

Expect this list to contain yield traps by construction. A high trailing yield is frequently a price that has already fallen on news the dividend has not yet reflected. Do not treat a hit here as income.

The basket, line by line

Every one of the 59 stocks it matched on 21 Sept 2026, with its own return since, in USD. These average to the figure above. A stock that no longer quotes stays on the list, at the bottom, rather than disappearing from the record.

Questions and comments

Ask the author what a hit means, where the data is thin, or for the version you would actually use. Those are the questions that get answered.
