  • Historic Post-Crash Market Returns: How Will This Crash Fare? [View article]
    Jimbo,

    Unfortunately no. I thought of that almost immediately after I posted this, but I am unsure as to where to find historical statistics on dividends for the aggregate market.

    Dividends from companies on the DJIA might be fairly negligible today, but they were definitely larger earlier in the century. Of course, I don't know how many dividends were being paid out in the Great Depression, either. If I had to take a wild stab in the dark, I'd say you could add 1-2% annually for the Depression years and maybe 1% for the '70s example, but I really have no clue.
