was just wondering if someone could post the top ten dividends offered by Australian companies. also the top ten yields would be great as well :)

apart from ZFX going ex-dividend with its huge 70c dividend - are there any others over the next few weeks worth buying for the dividend?

cheers

Look in the tables of australian financial review.
Though there probably is an easier way. Like asking sum1 on this forum to do it for u ;)

Most of them will be listed property trusts and banks.

Though i once owned a company that did land development in Perth. PBD. Its a beauty of a company, i wish i held onto it instead of chasing resources but anyway yeh it was trading aroun $2,00 and it paid a 40c/divvy as interim fully franked and then 6 months and 80cents in sp appreciation later, it gives a final divvy a 50c/share..!

Is it sustainable from this company? probably not, but god damn thats a fairly nice yield!
 
Dunno about the list itself but some I hold or know of with excellent dividends are..

Bluescope Steel, Fletcher Building, Funtastic, Propgrammed, CMI, Grand Hyatt, Telstra, Qantas, Rinker, Fosters, all the banks, Westfield, DB Reef, IAG...


Dividends really make a difference if they are consistently paid and consistently increase like most of above. Hold for 10 years and reinvest and you'll double your money from dividends and double it as well from the price increase....hopefully.

ZFX as I said before is really a special dividend, the ones I listed are consistent and usually increasing.

bro ZFX has been around for 2 years and its dividend has been increasing. Call it what u will, but really, no, its not a special dividend.
u cant compare it to companies that have been around for years.
ZFX been around for 2 years and its paid dividends for those 2 years. THats a good a track record as any.
 
Imajica Rozella is your man for this sort of info and he has a site that does dividend stripping(sounds a bit naughty) www.exdividendwatchlist.com.au results look pretty steady and he also lists trades that he does on this site-just search for dividends,think the thread starts is there a connection between share price and dividend.

Realist, I'd hardly describe RIN's dividend as excellent!

Oh dear, there are companies that have consistently paid dividends since 1890 and you think 2 years is good? Hahahaaa

:rolleyes:

read my post again please
READ IT this time

ZFX has been around for 2 years
2 out of 2 is pretty good

From 1890-1892 is also a TWO YEAR PERIOD

Isnt 100 out of 100 and 2 out of 2 the same thing?

the point is: every year they have been around they have paid a dividend

No!!

Otherwise by your logic 1 out of 1 is the same.

Some company paying dividends for the past 116 years is a safer way to guarantee good dividends than some company that has just paid its first dividend. Obviously.

ZFX is not a company that consistently pays good dividends. It is not a compant I would buy for yield.

Have to agree with Realist on this. Sample size is significant.

If I make 50% return on each of my first two trades, does that make me as good as someone who's made a 50% return every year for the last 10 years?

OK.

My point was the ZINIFEX IS A WINNER!!

No other resource stock pays a divvy that even comes close in absolute or %yield terms. This year im expecting a $2/share dividend from there, and as for the capital growth, oh dont even get me started :D

Yeah RIN has low dividends and often crap franking

But whats worse, it doesnt use the money to grow/expand, they must be expecting hidden future costs increase.

thx

Earnings and Dividends Forecast (cents per share)

EPS 106.6 117.9 123.3 129.1
DPS 78.0 41.9 43.0 46.2
 
Unfortunately ZFX has a very short mine life

It pays a stunning yield and has such a low PE because at current depletion rates it is not going to be around for long. The yield is not sustainable

Some would contend they should stop paying out so much and concentrate on finding a suitable investment for the money

But at least they are displaying discipline and refusing to pay too much

Well fortunately for me i dont plan to hold ZFX forever. Actually i dont hold it at all but im a huge fan as u can tell. Unfortunately, my capital doesnt let me to buy every single stock that i like. I think ZFX will outperform in the next 3-6month probably any other stock on the asx100, due to the supply shortage that zinc metal will face. Current depletion rates are 1,500tonnes per day. 6 months ago there were 250ktonnes and currently 130ktonnes, yet the price is about the same as it was in May. We are well due for a spike and when it comes, u would wanna be holding this one IMO (or any other zinc pure play)... :2twocents

There are relatively low risk listed property trusts yielding 9-10% atm.

Some that are worth having a look at are MPS, RAT, MRA - all yielding 9-10%.

Others worth looking at are REU, AEU, GSA.

Utilities and infrastructure are also offering good yields for very low risk.

One worth lookig at is VIR, yielding 10-11% at the moment.

cheers.
