I don't know who started the comment abt 'don't be hardup over dividends'. Maybe bro Whk3 a trader? Those who do intraday trading won't be bother very much abt the dividends.
For me, dividend is a plus factor to buy/add to position. Even if for trading, see can time it so as to get both dividend & hopefully capital gains!
there is some truth to what he says though. i mean, there are a few stocks on SGX with more than 10% yield, why are people not buying those ?
dont just chase after dividends blindly, and also try to understand whether they are paying more dividends than what they can afford to pay etc...
