The Hidden Dangers of Holding Dividend-Paying Stocks

David Keller of Market Misbehavior and I had an amazing talk about the markets! In this podcast, we covered the benefits of following asset flows, the dangers of holding dividend-paying stocks, and how to navigate a potential breakdown in energy and crude oil.

If my favorite asset is falling, I sell. I can always buy it back later, and likely at a lower price.
