I myself see a big pullback coming in the next six months but I don’t know that I have ever been correct over 45 years. I will put a lot of money in if a 10% pullback comes. I expect you r being prudent depending on how old you are. The thing is, if you’re young, you might as well stick it out and not try to time. He said.

Let's say you have a $100,000 portfolio. On a given trading day, the numbers show an increase in value of $500. Within that portfolio is a small position in a stock that blew up and shows a 20% ($1,000) decline for the day.

My point is to show that a typical investor doesn't need to worry about yield and just invest longer term mostly in indexes such as SPY/VTI and if you want more tech you can use QQQ.
I don't see any advantage looking for higher yield stocks as it …
This partly speaks to that and would seem to entail EM effects:
