The dividend yield of US stocks is calculated the same way as in Brazil: dividends over the last 12 months divided by the current stock price.
US stocks with high DYs tend to be mature, stable companies (utilities, REITs, telecoms). A DY above 4% is considered high in the US market.
This ranking includes only stocks with a positive dividend yield and is updated from the US stock screener data.
