Chart o’ the Day: 2/3rds of the S&P 500 yield more than Treasurys

Posted by

Nice, clean chart representing one of the year’s biggest themes via the Bank of America Merrill Lynch RIC Report:

At the end of July, the dividend yield on 65% of the stocks in the S&P 500 exceeded the yield on the 10-year Treasury.

Josh here – A reversal in rates will change this quickly, as we saw in 2013. Can the stock market hold up when the stocks become less interesting as yield plays vs the 10-year? The answer is yes, so long as bond interest rates are rising for the right reason (growth pickup).
