Each year in May, with the bulk of the previous year's financial reporting behind us, EuroShareLab compiles a list of the UK and Europe's highest dividend yield stocks to identify attractive market sectors and possible high yield investments. The yields available at the moment are surprisingly high with the average dividend yield of my top 10 European high dividend yield picks being 6.9%. Not bad when compared to the low interest rated available on bank deposits and high quality bonds.
What is also surprising is that the share prices are not much above their 52 week lows. On average my top 10 picks is trading at just over 15% above their 52 week lows. This means these high dividend yield companies have not participated in the market rally at all. Similar to last year utilities, telecommunication and integrated oil companies make up the largest part of the highest dividend payers.
