- BHP leads the list with the growing likelihood that its dividend will be cut. A decision on this is not expected until February and commodity prices can fluctuate dramatically in the space of two or three months
- NAB and ANZ have yields of about 6.5%. There is also talk that their dividends could be cut due to the large capital raisings this year. This is looking increasingly unlikely in the short term as their share prices have rallied over the last couple of weeks.
- WOW 5.7%. Who knows what will happen with WOW. Who will the new CEO be? What will happen to Masters? What will happen to Big W? Will second quarter sales be positive?
- MQG and CSL with lower yields have been by far the best share price performers over the year.
