Put a note on Forgien dividend stock as to the tax charged by the country involved.This way comparison is possible.
I buy dividend stocks from US and Foreign countries. When comparing these stocks there is no mention of the foreign tax on these dividends therefore making it impossible to compare. Exp. I just received a dividend from BASFY a German Co. and the Dividend was $400.00 and the tax was $105.00 .A pretty hefty tax that would have changed my opinion of the purchase .I think VectorVest could put additional info of these types of stocks, perhaps in the Dividend Yield area indicating the tax ramifications.

At lest show that the company is a Foreign stock. Also it would be helpful to have a Watch List of all Foreign stocks.
