Does a good dividend yield influence your likelihood of cashing in on gains?


My example of this is that I was lucky with timing and bought WBA at $31. I think this company will be strong for years and I personally use their services as with many in the US and GB. Taking the gains from this purchase with the thought that the market will dip again and I will increase my cash to enter VOO down the road. My portfolio being in the red for so long it makes me want to take some gains where I can get them. But holding a winning stock just seems like the better play given that I believe I entered at a good price and the dividend will carry me for years even if there isn’t much growth. Any thoughts? Thanks for taking the time to read!
