How to read this chart

For dividend investors, yield near the top of its historical range is the signal worth waiting for: same business, same dividend, lower price than usual. Zones are inverted vs P/E — green at the top (historically high yield = historically cheap stock), red at the bottom (low yield = historically expensive).

Key caveats
  • An unusually high yield can also signal an expected dividend cut — always check the payout ratio and recent earnings before acting on a high-yield signal.
  • Verify whether a rising yield comes from a price decline (potentially interesting) or from a growing dividend (healthy but changes the entry signal logic).
