I’ve started a new series of screens on my blog. The best yielding large cap stocks from foreign countries with cheap price ratios. The results from Asia and Latin America were inspirational for me but when I look deeper into the results, I realize that I could not build a deeper relationship to them. They are too far away from my research and their products and services are really unknown for me.
Today I like to come back to the core industrialized
countries by screening stocks from the United Kingdom with an U.S. listing. A full
list of the best yielding stocks from the FTSE can also be found in my weekly published
E-Book “Dividend
Weekly”.
My criteria are still the same: A market capitalization
over USD 10 billion with a low forward P/E of less than 15. Finally, the dividend
yield should be positive. In total, 16 of 38 U.K. stocks fulfilled these criteria.
Thirteen companies have a current buy or better rating.
Here are my favorite stocks:
