Try this.  Go to this website

http://www.globalregister.co.nz/share.htm

There you will find a good summary of all the listed New Zeland 
companies, displayed in four alternative formats.  Go to format 2 and 
you will see that one of the columns listed is dividend yield.  Note 
the high dividend yield shares as your starting point, and read 
across the column to grab the appropriate 3 letter share codes.

Next go to the sharechat sister site 'stocknessmonster'

http://stocknessmonster.com

There is a search engine on the front page that allows you to enter 
these three letter codes and bring up all the news releases for the 
share you select for the last four years or so.  Some of these news 
releases will be profit announcements, from which you can start 
building up a profit history.

Keep us informed with progress reports as to how you get on.  I'd say 
good luck, but really there is no luck involved.  Just hard work.  
Welcome to the world of investment.
