Like the robot in "Lost in Space" would say "DANGER! DANGER!" .

All of the above may well be good values , BUT the div and yeild will very likely return to the avg. for the sector very soon. If wall street was convinced the yeild will continue , the share prices would not be so far beaten down. I'm no stock wizzard , but I have bought stocks in the past for the reasons in your post and I got some expensive lessons.
