SUPERIOR Dividend ETF Investing to BEAT SCHD in 2024 (+50%)

  • What are the best dividend ETFs for 2024, and more importantly which ones are better positioned to outperform in the coming years.
    Now one of the most popular dividend ETFs in the markets is schd, which is the Schwab us dividend Equity ETF.
    This ETF has a very large fan base thanks to its consistent dividend yield, and capital appreciation ability, combined with strong risk mitigation which allows investors to experience consistent and reliable growth over the years.
    Now has the ETF been flawless? absolutely not, in fact it does have quite a few underlying problems that I wanted to dissect so that investors can get a thorough understanding of what they are investing in so they are not simply relying on historical performance.
    And this is start to a new series of videos that dissects popular dividend ETFs and focuses on how they can be improved, so that investors can maybe create their own versions, but also compare them with similar alternatives.

      If one is in their 40s and just started investing (have 401k from work). Should they just focus on growth etf since it will be too late for them to see real benefits with dividends? I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here

      Way to go, that portfolio is impressive! I bet you’ll smash your dividends from last year with SCHD going crazy in quarter 2 this year (: DRGO is a nice addition for dividend grower. Not that you need me to tell you that (: You’re waaaaay down the path already.

    • @barbborstein7640
      @barbborstein7640 Місяць тому +2

      I wouldn't say early 40's is 'too late' for anything related to investing. If you have at least 20 years left to put money into the market then I think growth is a nice way to lean. I would still have a balance of the two. I think value/dividends is good to have at any age in any market (with at least a portion of the portfolio). A good F.A might be able to guide you and determine the most efficient strategy that suits your situation and circumstances. Believe me it takes out much of the guesswork!

    I like investing in close-end funds that pay monthly dividends. The trick is to hold long term and reinvest the monthly dividends plus buy more shares on a monthly basis or when ever you can afford to. This can be easily done because close-end funds are bought and sold on the stock market just like regular stock. That’d be enough to create a portfolio that would pay you between $50k to $70k in dividend income

    Viktoria - 100% agreed with DGRO recommendation. Way better than SCHD going forward. I've been selling a lot of our SCHD since March 2023 and replaced with VOO and DGRO. HOWEVER - You're wrong in your description of SCHD fund screening and objectives. SCHD does NOT look for dividend growth, and it does not require its holdings to have increased or kept paying dividends to be included. The fund managers only need the holdings to pass 3 of the 4 filters to be included. This is how Ford made it onto SCHD, even though Ford cut its dividend completely 2 1/2 years ago! I emailed the fund managers about Ford in early 2023 and this is what they told me. That's when I started selling SCHD. I believe that the fund managers have taken an ESG stance on inclusion of some stocks, including Ford. DGRO has much better filters/screening that it must adhere to, and their inclusion of tech stocks, mid cap and small caps make it much better for the long run than SCHD.

      @tomsettles6873 7 місяців тому

      If you want higher dividends right away, probably SCHD. If you don't need the dividends until 7+ years in the future, I would go DGRO. Its tech holdings will probably help it outperform SCHD.@@jeffML3926

I know I screwed up years ago as they both have a 5.5 % buy in . Which really really stinks. However since that has been lost already. I'd like to am asking ask your opinion, as to how they perform and the different risks between them and SAY DGRO or SVOL or some of the other ETF's that seem to be great to invest in these days. PS Like your videos ! Some of it is way over my head but it seem like it is coming from place in your head that is very knowledgeable and educated in this area good and this stuff !

    But SCHD is focused on income generation not Growth. If you want growth get a growth fund… I think its comparing apples and oranges…

    While I am still working on launching my UA-cam Channel as Spectrum Internet service is not what it should be for there speeds. I would though have to disagree with with alot of what you said. For starters I hate to be the one that tells you but you miss the bigger broader picture of things quite a bit unless your just not talking about it. Which is also why I am unsubscribing.
    Ford is actually really good of a company still way better than Government Motors which only needed to be bailed out back in the day and then will not take care of their clients. Ford currently has to date has not taken a bail out from what my research has shown. EVs are not what they are cracked up to be they will not solve the problem of fossil fuels the electric grid alone is not ready for it yet still. Point blank EVs are a waste of time money and valuable resources 1,000% so do knock a company due to leaving Electric Vehicles is not cool when there is not enough research to produce them to begin with. Don't be an Elan Musk sheep it doesn't look good.
    Next even with there law suits yet again not looking at the broader picture 3M goes away as a company yes someone may pick up the slack somewhere but its as bad as says well be fine if Proctor & Gamble goes under or for that matter Walmart. 3M makes and produces to much medical supplies alone 99% of band aids are made by 3M or JNJ sraight and simple. Charles Schwab has proven to be a great smart company. On a personal opinion even better the JP Morgan that actually caused the housing market crash of 2008 and caused the Economy to fail because of it that of which the US still has not actually recovered from. Back on track here; yes 3M is not perfect but they are just as big as some banks that should not even be around is my point and will not go under they may drop which any long term investor even someone you seem to follow a lot Warren Buffet will say buy the dip or just keep buying the company if you like what they do.
    Lastly as my job of field is in the IT field don't believe the news or everything you follow Microsoft is not what they are cracked up to be or the news makes them out to be. MS Office alone is over priced and I can tell you we are doing everything not to use it as its not worth the cost or price that is for a Government building even. They are lacking in the AI race Amazon, Apple, & Cisco are leading the way. Google & Amazon are leading in Cloud actually with Cisco as well. I would never recommend a Microsoft software unless someone really really needed it. Azure is not worth the benefits plus due to Cloud costs Government regulations are local and Fed now this is for mainly NY are moving to AWS or to "in house kept" the only cool thing Microsoft has done which supposedly has not effected the ocean floor was put a storage unit under the ocean as a drop and storage. Heck yet still they could not even build there own browser you got to love Microsoft Chrome 🤣. Brad is even better than Co Polit after using both for about 2 months now from launch. Not to much how much Microsoft mess up the coding of a PC when setting it up making users create a MS account not allowing a local account backing up to OneDrive instead of using the PC storage. Point blank Microsoft was never actually produced anything productively from scratch that work they can say is there own design I would never be proud of calling there life span mine if I was Bill Gates. He actually stole everything making is company and then the uneducated believe everything he says. The only true reason to add them to SCHD is due to Ford using MS software for there radios that we can say does not work right even still.
    I will agree DGRO is not bad over all. I would not stress Broadcom either they are more of a service provider than anything else currently. They are not actually working with AI as much. Due to Seeking Alpha seemed good but I ditched following them as they were not providing good intell for a while.
