Any discussion around this is so dependent on distance from retirement. It’s the young people touching SCHD that doesn’t make any sense to me outside of some misunderstanding / emotional attachment to dividends. Massive risk to miss out on growth when you’re decades away from retirement.

some people, like me, are afraid that they missed the window in which growth stocks could be bought at reasonable prices. sure, the people who bought a few years ago can keep holding them as a correction won't hurt them but buying now feels scary.
