Top-Yielding Stocks from the Buyback Achievers Portfolio

I always talk about good dividends that grow over time, but receiving big dividends from high-quality stocks is only the half truth. A dividend payment is only one way to distribute earnings to shareholders. Another very effective way to pay money indirect is to buy your own shares back. Today I started a little screen about stocks that have repurchased at least around 5 percent of their own outstanding shares within the recent 12 months.

You can find a complete list of the top yielding stocks from the Dividend Buyback Achievers Portfolio attached. Only 15 companies from the list have a current yield of more than 3 percent. Here are the biggest stocks: ConocoPhillips (COP), CA (CA) and Iron Mountain (IRM).
