Dividend-paying stocks, like value stocks, have had a great run since the "growth crash" started in 2000. But any rally that goes too long becomes a bubble, and every bubble ends with a "pop." What makes it worse in this case is that (1) several dividend-seeking ETFs like this one have allowed investors to further inflate prices and reduce yields of these stocks, and (2) corporations have reduced their dividend payments in favor of buybacks, making the old-fashioned high-yield stock an endangered species.

I'm placing my bets on a dividend crash.
