Frequently asked

How many basic materials stocks pay a dividend?

We currently track 110 basic materials operating companies paying a dividend, with a median yield of 1.33%. ETFs, closed-end funds and ADRs are excluded from this count — those are funds, not companies.

Which basic materials stock has the highest dividend yield?

UAN shows the highest trailing yield in the sector at 18.67%. Treat the very top of any yield list with suspicion: an unusually high figure is often a special or one-off payment sitting in the trailing rate, or a share price that has collapsed.

Are high-yield basic materials dividends safe?

Yield alone tells you nothing about safety. In this sector 76 of 110 companies pay out 60% or less of earnings, which is the group with genuine room to keep raising. 9 have cut their dividend recently, and 8 have raised.

Do any basic materials companies pay monthly dividends?

No. Every dividend payer in this sector pays quarterly, semi-annually or annually. Monthly dividends are concentrated in REITs, BDCs and specialty finance.

How often is this list updated?

Nightly. Prices, yields, payout ratios and performance come from our own data pipeline, and this page reflects prices as of Sep 3, 2026. New dividend initiations and cuts are picked up automatically.
