Historical Dividend Studies
#1
I posted this in the Dividend Growth Investing section, it should probably have gone here...

I have found a number of published studies that illustrate the importance of dividends to investment total return. The first link below is I think the most persuasive, but they all support the theory that dividends play a major role in total return, contrary to the assertions made on behalf of MPT by such proponents as Larry Swedroe.
