Australian-listed companies are poised to pay investors some $A18bn worth of dividends. However, UBS Wealth Management’s David Sokulsky says that in the near-term investors may be better off retaining their dividends in cash rather than reinvesting in shares. He says investors should wait until the US Federal Reserve increases the cash rate, as bank stocks may offer value when the central bank finally tightens monetary policy. He also says equity markets may have further downside.
