For some investors, dividends are incredibly important. The cash flow from dividends can be a source of retirement income or funneled back into other investments. As a result, many investors fall into the trap of only looking at dividend yield (what percentage of the stock price is paid out in dividends each year).

Don't be dismissive of dividends. Even if you're not focused on building an income-generating portfolio, dividends are important. They accounted for nearly 40% of the S&P 500's total returns over the last two decades.
