Last week, the Yuanta Taiwan High Dividend ETF (00919) went ex-dividend and attracted a large number of investors, with trading volume reaching 228,000 shares. Despite facing dividend pressure, the ETF has continuously maintained a high dividend yield of over 10% for five consecutive quarters. Investment expert Chen Zhongming suggests following the '3 principles of holding stocks,' including regular purchases, buying on dips after ex-dividend, and reinvesting dividends. Chen emphasized that buying when the price drops after ex-dividend can sometimes be more profitable than receiving dividends directly. He also mentioned the importance of cost and quantity when investing in high dividend ETFs, recommending investors to buy more during dips and reinvest dividends to steadily increase the number of shares held.
