Abstract
At the end of the past century, a new type of anomaly associated with a higher return on high-yield shares was discovered on the American stock market. Since then the effectivenes of high-dividend strategies has been investigated by many authors based not only on US market, but also on other markets. The results of the studies were contradictory, that’s why it would be interesting to test the strategy over a longer time period taking into account the largest possible number of national indexes. We made a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of high-dividend strategies based on 38 indexes from 32 countries and economies and find some new factors affecting the profitability of high-dividend portfolios.
