As such, sign #2 (which is equivalent to a dropping stock price) isn't an "early" warning sign -- it's just the normal warning sign. :-) I don’t think something qualifies as an “early warning sign” if it occurs after a stock price has already plummeted.

I think it is important to consider industry and peer company yields when evaluating if a particular yield is out of line.

I would like to mention, though, as far as higher-than-expected yields, I would be a little more careful right now. There are a lot of stocks (as you know of course) that are grossly undervalued due to nothing more than overall panic. Yes, absolutely, I would question a 15-20% yield, a company whose yield has grown from 3.5 to 6% in the last six months could simply be one of these undervalued gems. What do you think? Hi D4L,

What do you think?
