After you enter the stock symbol look down the left hand side with all the related links to "Key Statistics." If you click on that it will give you on the lower right hand side the payout ratio. It appears to be a trailing 12 month ratio but I'm not 100% sure of that. Whatever it is, it's good enough for me to decide if I want to add a company to my watch list.
Question, the dividend payout % you are using is it the trailing twelve months?

I can't stand their CEO. He's incompetent, IMO.

i was using yahoo's stock screener to look up yields. when i looked up the symbol on yahoo i would get something different on some of them, usually lower. looks like the yahoo website might be trailing.
