Everyone loves high yielding dividend stocks. But there are some companies that most home gamers with an E-Trade account don’t know about. While these top 10 names are not household brands in the U.S., they sure are in the big four emerging markets. Many of these are growth stocks so their yield will come down. But as their yield comes down, that means their stock price has gone up. All of them yield better than the average in the MSCI Emerging Markets index and better than the average dividend yield in the S&P 500.
