Dividend income — what the screen found 2026-09-22

Among the 39 companies passing today’s high-yield screen with dividends covered by earnings, DHT stands out with a dividend yield of 21.73%¹. Other notable yields include ORC at 19.72%, ARR at 19.46%, DX at 16.81%, WU at 15.17%, and AGNC at 14.41%²˒³˒⁴˒⁵. These companies range in market capitalization from ORC’s $1.20B to AGNC’s $11.85B⁶˒⁷.

It's important to note that passing this screen does not establish the worthiness of these stocks for ownership. The test only indicates high yields with payouts covered by earnings but leaves out other crucial factors like financial health, market conditions, and broader economic risks. For instance, while DHT boasts a robust yield of 21.73%¹, its market cap stands at $3.62B⁸. Similarly, AGNC’s high yield is accompanied by the largest market cap among these companies⁷.

The screen itself does not predict future performance or provide a comprehensive investment recommendation. It merely filters for specific numerical criteria on a given date. The current macro regime shows no risk-off signals across the tracked indicators, but that doesn’t guarantee any direction in stock prices.

In summary, while these 39 companies meet the high-yield criterion with payouts covered by earnings, investors should consider additional factors before making an investment decision.
