It ties this belief to duration-based explanations of the value premium. Portfolio-level dividend evidence is presented first, for buy-and-hold and rebalanced portfolios and for long-run growth. A dedicated section then explains why the belief persists, attributing it to efficiency growth, survivorship bias and look-back bias. An analytical section derives the rebalancing effect, followed by additional tests. The conclusion is a brief restatement, and the appendices give delta-method standard errors and a survivorship-adjustment procedure.\",\"writing_profile_keywords\":[\"conventional-wisdom challenge\",\"single-author first-person\",\"descriptive portfolio evidence\",\"bias reconciliation\",\"duration-based value premium\",\"question-form title\"],\"confidence\":0.75,\"notes\":\"The intro paragraph containing Gordon's formula is fragmented across two entries (paragraphs 1–2) by parsing.
