- Bostonian 6y agoWhen government bond yields are below 1% from maturities from 0 to 10 years, there is no safe 4-5% return. The price/earnings ratio (or its inverse, the earnings yield), is a better measure of stock valuation than the dividend yield. In a taxable account it is better to get capital gains because of stock buybacks than to get dividends.
