Cheapest Dividend Midcap Stocks With Highest Dividend Yield Researched By Dividend Yield - Stock, Capital, Investment. Midcap stocks, stocks with a market capitalization of more than USD 2 billion but less than USD 10 billion, are not in focus of mainstream investors. In comparison to large cap stocks, they are cheaper and they offer a higher yield. The price for this bargain is also a higher risk.
I screened all mid-capitalized stocks with a dividend yield over five percent (high yield) and a single P/E ratio of less than ten. Thirteen stocks fulfilled these criteria of which five have a double digit yield; five are recommended to buy. The highest yield comes from YPF S.A. (YPF), an Argentina oil and gas refining and marketing company. The company is in process to be taken over by the government and lost half of its worth over the past year.
Here are my favorite stocks:
