However, most high dividend yield stocks have strong periodicity, so long-term investment is a better way to participate in high dividend yield stocks.
Yuan Huaming, general manager of Huahui Chuangfu investment, also told reporters that since the numerator of dividend yield is dividend and the denominator is stock price, most stock markets with high dividend yield have low earnings ratio or relatively low stock price.

with high dividend potential

Chen Li, chief economist of Chuancai securities and director of the Research Institute, said in an interview with the Securities Daily: “enterprises that can pay dividends usually have strong profitability and abundant cash flow; at the same time, these enterprises often have considerable industry status, stable performance and strong anti risk ability, so as to be separated from the industry cycle to a certain extent.”
In fact, in the view of professionals, high score red stocks usually have some characteristics: for example, the dividend yield has exceeded the bank’s one-year fixed deposit rate (1.75%) for three consecutive years (20182020); The net profit in the first three quarters of 2021 is positive, or the annual performance forecast of 2021 has been disclosed and expected; The net operating cash flow per share in the first three quarters of 2021 was positive; In the first three quarters of 2021, the undistributed profit per share exceeded 1 yuan.

From the perspective of industry attributes, these 93 companies mainly come from automobile, textile and clothing, media, banking and other industries 35 \inline with the above characteristics, the cash distribution per share has reached 1 yuan or more (before tax) over the years from 2018 to 2020, and the continuous dividend intensity is greater.
Pan Helin, CO director and researcher of the digital economy and financial innovation research center of the International United Business School of Zhejiang University, who was interviewed by the Securities Daily, said, “high dividend paying enterprises are often in the mature stage. It is difficult for them to further improve their performance through investment, but their existing businesses can generate sufficient cash flow.”
Chen Li also believes that “the industry of high dividend paying enterprises has entered a mature period, the growth rate of the overall market space has slowed down, and the industry pattern is relatively stable. These industries usually experience a relatively long period of stability until the new opportunities brought by new technologies have an impact on the existing pattern.”
Liu Cunxin, assistant manager of Rongzhi investment fund under private placement paipai.com, told reporters about the investment opportunities of companies with high dividend yield, “Dividend yield is an important reference index for stock selection. Among them, the level and sustainability of dividend yield are the focus of reference. In the current situation of high overall environmental risk and strong uncertainty, the risk aversion of market funds is high. Therefore, investing in stocks with dividend yield exceeding bank time deposits for three consecutive years will be a better defensive strategy. Superimposed on the improvement of valuation after the improvement of economy, it will bring good investment return.”
