Yes, this is why I always say that capital gains taxes should be increased and dividends taxes decreased.
It discourages hoarding. You can make capital gains off of so many different reasons that have nothing to do with the performance of the stock. It's insane.
Meanwhile dividends are entirely dependent on the income of a company. You can't cheat dividends because it's the company that has to pay them, not other investors that can drive irrational behavior.
