Industrial Sector Dogs Yield And Gains Led By Scorpio, Navios, And Seaspan Into February

January/February Industrial Dogs
Yield (dividend / price) results from here verified by Yahoo Finance were calculated as of 2/1/17 for Small, Mid, & Large cap Industrials sector stocks. Small cap firms were valued at $200M(illion) to $2B(illion); Mid cap firms were worth $2B to $10B; Large caps were valued above $10B. (One XN Microcap firm under $200M managed to make the top 30.) Those yield results led to the actionable conclusions discussed below.
The Dividend Dogs Rule
The "dog" moniker was earned in three steps: (1) any stock paying a reliable, repeating dividend (2) whose price fell to a point where its yield (dividend/price) (3) grew higher than its peers (such as this Industrials collection), is so tagged. Thus, the highest yielding stocks in any collection became known as "dogs." More specifically these are in fact, best called "underdogs".
