This article link below I found interesting. Jim Cramer/NBC stating tax increase on Capital Gains and NOT DIVIDENDS. I hope he's right. I never thought about the split between the two from a tax legislative perspective. Also, interesting to note how he projects a stock price increase on dividend stocks, if the tax proposal goes forward.
The above coincides with austinAG80 and his Macros from this morning.
All the above is some of my support for maintaining my dividend stocks.

"If you're worried about Biden's plan to raise taxes on capital gains but not dividend income, well that's not a reason to sell everything," the "Mad Money" host said. "It's a reason to buy dividend stocks."

The other question we get is why equities are not doing better given the strong earnings numbers and outlook?... Equities are expensive... And if you look at the tea leaves, the largest companies, like Apple, Amazon and Microsoft are decreasing in sizes of the S+P as the rotation to value and smaller stocks continue... Either way, the Biden stimulus, whether it be another 4 trillion, or more like half of that, is additive, especially if it gets paid for by the Fed buying 120 billion a month of treasuries and mortgages... Do we really need the mortgage purchases?.. They will taper.
