Dividend Yield Stocks - 2010


This is a bonus post!

Generated a list of stocks with high dividend on the SGX (more than 5% dividend yield)

Sorted according to payout ratio, a high payout ratio means that there is increased likelihood that the firm cannot maintain its dividend if earnings don't do well.

Other display fields include reported PE, PB, 3 yr average ROE and EBIT margin.

Personally, I think Boustead, Vicom and SATS are well-known and solid dividend plays listed on SGX. Haven't done much research on most of these stocks.

Also, pls be reminded that the yield is average 3 yr yield, which is slightly different from the current yield. Current yield is lower for most stocks. Eg. Vicom, SATS are 4 plus % based on current yield while the table shows 5-6% yield.

Anyways, hope this helps!
