>is value investing in stocks a lot easier?

Yes, there's a whole other side to stocks where the strategy is as much about stability and maximizing dividend yield as it is about whether the share price moves up much while you're holding the position.

This is boring though. And it's where the 'stocks only give 10% returns per year' meme comes from. Now, you can make more than that even with a long hodl + dividend strategy but there is some truth to the meme. In my opinion, this strategy is best used by people with large amounts of capital who want growth with limited risk, or people who aren't willing to learn how to trade and just want a set and forget for a few years option.
