Most DGI investors sell when dividend is cut, but I really do not like idea selling lower than cost basis. I guess I need to come up with my own valuation and sell if there is a big difference?
At the moment I sell only when there's a dividend cut. In the past year I'm in DGI it was only MUR. I had a wondering about that too, I call it "decreased and deceased", meaning "how many stocks decreased their dividends and eventually fell 100% to the oblivion and how many of them started increasing their dividend again and managed to overcome". I don't have the answer for that but maybe the statistic answer to this question will answer yours.
I think I might open a new thread for that because it's not related to my initial question and I prefer not to mix up 2 different things
