Dow Q1 Earnings: 9% Dividend Yield In Question

Dow Moves To A Crisis Footing As Downside Risks Build (Rating Downgrade)
Dow's shares have underperformed due to weak pricing power, manufacturing activity, and Chinese construction market, with a 40% drop since my last "buy" recommendation. Given weak results, Dow is aggressively cutting costs and improving liquidity, including job cuts, delaying projects, and selling assets to preserve cash. The 9.6% dividend yield is at risk, especially if the economy worsens, with a potential 25-50% chance of a significant cut.
