The best yielding and biggest ex-dividend stocks researched by ”long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Dividend Investors should have a quiet overview of stocks with upcoming ex dividend dates.

I made a little screen of the best yielding stocks with a higher capitalization that have their ex date on the next trading day.
