Maybe Fed comments implying they will not be able to cut rates any further because of inflation.
It's always a good time to buy stocks unless you've only got a few years left to live.
With just a few exceptions, I have bought mutual funds and not individual stocks.
I don't focus much about dividends, although mutual funds pay them too.
I bought the Ford because at below $10 price, the dividends are 6% and I can only get about 4% now in new MM or CDs.
High dividends would scare me unless scaled in a fund as you say. The price is generally going down if the dividends are going up.

Also, PSA - there is a special 401k "catch up contribution" for 2025 as long as she is between 60 and 63. It's $23,500 max contribution with a catch up contribution of $11,250 for a total of $34,750. I think this is a one time opportunity for 2025 only.
Nice thing about Roth's too is that they aren't considered against you social security tax burden
