Don't buy stocks for their dividend yields, this chart suggests

It hasn’t been a good year to be an investor in dividend stocks, especially when you consider that Treasuries currently are yielding above 5% out to one year.

Indeed,... It hasn’t been a good year to be an investor in dividend stocks, especially when you consider that Treasuries currently are yielding above 5% out to one year. Indeed, high-yielding stocks have lagged so significantly this year that their juicy dividends aren’t enough to make up for the underperformance. As of Wednesday morning, the 101 S&P 500 SPX components that don’t pay dividends were up 20.7% on average on a year-to-date basis, while the 100 highest-yielding dividend payers in the index were down 3.2%, the Bespoke team highlighted.

Given a 17%-plus return for the S&P 500 so far this year, “anything down on the year is massively underperforming,” the analysts wrote.
