EuroStoxx50: Here Are The Yields From Europe's Large Cap Stocks

4 Great Dividend Value Picks From The Old Country

Large cap investors are looking for high liquidly stocks. Most investors think that they offer a better risk profile but the truth is that a higher liquidity and media presence avoid a bigger mispricing on the market. 

Recently, I wrote about domestic and foreign dividend paying small-and midcaps that could give investors a bigger opportunity for rising returns via a small capitalization. The disadvantage is definitely the higher risks.

With the Standard & Poor’s 500 having tripled off its financial-crisis low to trade near an all-time high, investors have started to look overseas for cheap stocks.

Big money flooded the European market within recent months and pushed the local stock markets in Europe.

While the Euro is still in a down trend, the current QE program of the ECB could lead to further fire power on the market.

Attached are 4 big names from the old country with deep values and solid dividends. Most of the results come from the healthcare sector, especially from the pharmacy industry.

Warning: Top Dividend Picks From Europe

Europe has a better investing environment as the United States. The ECB currently runs a 60 billion monthly quantitative easing program for the next months and a rising dollar makes European companies much cheaper than years before.

The big risk is still an ongoing decreasing euro due to problems in the Ukraine and debt negotiations in Greece. If the country should leave the Euro zone, other countries could follow but in the end, I believe that makes the area stronger. A bigger risk is to keep overspending countries with high debt in the Euro zone.

Today I run a market screener about European dividend stocks with simple criteria:

- Positive Dividend Yield

- Over 2 Billion Market Cap

- EPS growth for the next half-decade above 5 percent yearly

- Low forward P/E

- Debt-to-equity under 1

13 stocks fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which two stocks are High-Yields. Below are my 4 favorites with a detailed view on the fundamentals. I hope you have some fun by discovering my results and will leave a few comments. Thank you!
