So if we are to continue this little dialogue....
My MUNI BOND portfolio currently yields just about 4% tax free -- so at 15% dividend tax rate -- I "only" need to yield somewhere around 4.71% in the stock market. Since we need to pay attention to TOTAL RETURN -- that's pretty dang easy or has been easy in an "up market". If a guy can get a 3% dividend and a paltry 2 or 3% growth --- I'm killin' it!
But you have the "535" change that all up.... and watch out below!!
