I do fear what Trump will be inclined to do as the economy crashes
Yield varies inversely with price. The lowest dividend yield in the history of the financial markets occurred at the peak of the Great Tech Bubble of 1995–2000. It was 1.1%.
It’s now 1.2%, the second lowest in the history of the financial markets.
After the Federal Reserve printed so much money (more and more after the crashes of 2000 and then 2008 and then 2020) total stock market valuations have been driven to levels beyond 1929, very near to 2000. After the latter extreme the Nasdaq (tech-heavy) index lost more than 80% of its value. The coming crash will be of that magnitude.
Donald Trump is so temperamental that I do fear what he’ll try to do as his frustration mounts . . . as the coming crash unfolds during his coming administration.
