I screened all stocks with a dividend yield over
10 percent. 126 stocks have such a high yield but most of the companies are low
capitalized and they have not sustained dividends. In order to get only higher capitalized
stocks, I selected those with a market capitalization over USD 2 billion. Seventeen companies remained of which eleven are recommended to buy.
Here are my favorite
