Despite market ups and downs, DMCI remains appealing with its steady 10% dividend payout yield, providing a reliable income stream for investors. With the upcoming April dividend payout deadline, some market players may look to secure their positions early, to benefit from the payout itself. They may also buy the stock to capitalize on a potential price increase, as more investors buy in ahead of the dividend distribution schedule.
