DIVIDENDS: For those that are trying to keep what was already hard earned

Yes, beware of lists simply screened out by reference to historic divi yields which may not be sustainable. SMWH is another one tipped for the chop and there may be a few more up there if I looked a bit more carefully. The ones I mentioned from my own portfolio were picked for sustainability as well as high yield, although arguably LLOY is looking fragile, but I take the view that a big UK clearer in a recovering UK economy will not want to be seen to be cutting the divi and will fight to avoid it.
