High dividend yield stocks!

If you are looking for high dividend yield stocks, keep these parameters in mind; Don’t just focus on dividends and ignore valuations completely. Don't ignore debt or interest coverage rather than paying attention to profit ratios only. Don’t chase one type of company as capital appreciation is more important than dividends only. Don’t compare dividends to interest income. Consider dividend as surplus income and not regular income like interest. Don’t ignore the tax aspect as now it is the taxed in the hands of the investors.
