If you like the dividend yield now, just wait six months. It’s about to become _awesome_. Or at least that’s my bet.

There is more to stock return than dividend yield. How about total return? Considering return while excluding risk does not help.

Depends on what you are discounting. Finance 101=WACC. Using both your methods would yield terrible results. Garbage In Garbage Out.

risk free rates maybe heading lower but risky blended rates are not, it is the latter you should use for dcf. that said, i agree it’s got serious limitations.
