> Yielding over 3% and trading above the 200-day average. High yields usually come from falling prices; these prices are rising.

The trend filter is what turns a yield list into an income list. A 3% yield with the price above its 200-day average is a company paying you to hold while the market re-rates it upward. The same yield below the average is usually a price falling into the number. Between the two conditions this is the shape most dividend investors actually want, and a plain yield sort never produces it.
