Top 10 High Dividend Stocks Under $20 in the US — Top 100 List

Of the 2,071 companies priced under $20 in the US on PositoAI, 376 pay a dividend. First on the list is Natural Health Trends Corp. (47.23%). The median among them is 5.58%. None of the top 10 has an active red or yellow flag.

A low share price does not make a stock cheap: what matters is the company's value compared with its earnings and assets (P/E, P/B). Very low-priced stocks are often small, thinly traded and more volatile. Prices are the last close from the latest weekly refresh.
