ASX Highest Dividend Yield Scan

An ASX Dividend Yield Scan helps locate the highest-yielding ASX-listed stocks from the top 300 largest companies based on strong fundamentals. This scan is not a definitive investment list but serves as a starting point for identifying companies that may warrant further analysis.

ASX Dividend Yield Scan Criteria

• Market Capitalisation: Companies with a valuation of $1 billion or more are included in the scan.
• Dividend Yield: Stocks must offer a dividend yield of 5.0% or higher to be considered.
• Ranking by Dividend Yield: Companies are ranked based on their dividend yield percentage, allowing for easier comparison among high-yield stocks.

Key Considerations When Evaluating High Dividend Yields

While a high dividend yield can be attractive, it may also indicate potential risks, including:

• A declining share price, which may inflate the yield artificially.
• Limited growth potential, where earnings may not support future dividend sustainability.
• A one-off or special dividend, which may not reflect the company’s long-term payout strategy.

Regularly performing an ASX Dividend Yield Scan helps assess income-generating opportunities while ensuring a balanced approach to dividend stock selection.
