| Will dividend stocks drop soon? Posted by djmicrobe Since the tax rate on dividends will be greater next year, will dividend stocks take a hit? This assumes the "Bush" tax cuts are not renewed for next year. If they are renewed, then I'd guess dividend stocks would follow the market somewhat. Reply Back to Top |
| 15% is not going to change. Unless of course, you are the top 1% of wage earners in the entire US. Reply Back to Top |
| Everybody on the planet knows about this and has for awhile. What inclines you to believe that this is not already priced in? Reply Back to Top |
| I would think that interest rate sensitivity would be the scariest part from these stocks. Reply Back to Top |

| I think that if people are posting this theory on a college football forum, then most likely the large institutions and general investing public know about this risk. But as stock prices go down when people sell off, individual yields rise, which offset the tax concerns. What the actual tax concerns will be for next year, I'm not sure. Reply Back to Top |
