Is High Dividend Yield on Cost Trapping You? 3 Psychological Traps to Avoid

September 17, 2026

An infographic comparing the five-year performance of SPY (S&P 500) and DBS Bank (D05) from 2021 to 2026, titled "Are you trapped waiting for a 20% crash? The Cost of Missing the Boat (2021-2026)." The left panel displays a rising SPY stock chart highlighting that a 20% drop from the 2026 peak of over $600 still sits far higher than the late 2022 low of $360. The right panel displays a rising DBS stock chart showing a climb from $27 in 2021 to over $70 in 2026, highlighting a brief 2025 dip to $37.16 and the massive opportunity cost of 5 years of forfeited dividends. The main caption reads "Crash Investing: The Cost of Waiting."
