Dividend stocks should be a part of everybody’s long-term stock portfolio. Let’s take a look into the semiconductor equipment and materials industry, an industry that I have analyzed by the best yielding dividend stocks. Stocks from the industry have a total market capitalization of $177 billion, the average industry P/E ratio is 11.0, P/B ratio 2.3 and the average dividend yield amounts to 2.9 percent.
