Show Me The Growth! 3 Reasons Why Dividend Stocks Are Losing Favor In Choppy Times
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Investors are shifting their focus from dividend-paying stocks to growth-focused tech stocks, according to Ned Davis Research. Non-dividend-paying stocks in the S&P 500 have outperformed dividend stocks, with an 18% gain compared to a 4% gain for income stocks in 2023. Companies like Nvidia Corp. and Apple, Inc., which have low dividend yields, have seen significant share price increases. The poor performance of dividend stocks is attributed to the pullback in regional banking stocks and the decline in energy stocks due to lower crude oil prices.
