In this video I use Stockopedia's leading stock screener to find the top 12 dividend stocks in Australia. Dividend stocks are valued in the investment community as they provide an income to investors which can often rival term deposits. Dividends are also a sign of a company that is profitable, has low capital expenditure needs, and is generally friendly to shareholders, which isn't always the case. I made a video in the past where I also looked at the top dividend stocks. To get to this list of 12 I took a more measured approach by using eight different screening filters to narrow down 1800+ Australian stocks to just 12. Filters used on Stockopedia's screening tool: - Country: Australia - Market Capitalisation: Over AU$100m - Dividend Yield TTM: Over 5% - Price Change 1Y: Over -5% - Price CAGR 5Y: Over 0% - Dividend Streak: Over 5 Years - Excluded Industries: Investment Banking, REITs and Investing Holding Co's Stockopedia is a great tool for screening stocks and doing your equity research.
