SPYD vs SPLG: Which Is The Better ETF? 🤔

[@Melanie9908]

If young -> growth, if near retirement-> income

[@rynewilliams]

Love it!

[@hotballz72]

@Melanie9908 what if ur just starting out at 52. Maxing out traditional 401k with S&P fund. Trying to figure out what to max roth IRA with....growth or dividends?

[@Duke_of_Prunes]

Definitely SPLG -- Unless you're retiring soon, I would focus on overall growth.

[@rynewilliams]

Nice!

[@jortega61924]

I’m 45 and I am investing in VOO in my taxable account and FXAIX in my Roth.

[@bossballheaddawg2588]

I'm Splg, plus long term Splg dividend I believe should grow like Voo and soy dividend long term

[@thomashart1030]

Thanks for using my question as a short Ryne. I think I will invest in SPLG for the growth, as I am retired and have some good dividend payers already. I would like to have some growth stocks/ETF's in my portfolio. Keep up the good work sir.

[@rynewilliams]

Thank you Thomas!

[@journeyman_15]

I will go with $SPLG for the growth

[@rynewilliams]

Nice!

[@FireinTheBowl]

The differences are minimal considering how much spy trades

[@DungNguyen-vn3eu]

Go with OMFL its better holds 1000 companies and changes monthly.

[@andrewkellerhals1361]

I'm in SPYD

[@SG-xb7de]

Is SPLG better than VOO? Is it a foundational or growth ETF?

[@rynewilliams]

They’re both the same thing pretty much. I think the S&P would be considered both growth and foundational

[@SG-xb7de]

@@rynewilliams Is it better to wait a few months or to invest rn? Lumpsum or DCA?

[@rynewilliams]

@@SG-xb7de when it comes to ETFs like any of these S&P 500 ones, I’m a big proponent for not waiting and just dollar cost averaging. Start building that thing!

[@SG-xb7de]

@@rynewilliams Thank you!

[@chrishustles94]

So at a 71.98% return in the last 5 years that means $SPLG had a yearly return of 14.396%?

[@rynewilliams]

On average, yes

[@VictorSanchezVS13]

I wanted to like spyd, so much. But it just isn't as good as others

[@rynewilliams]

Agreed

[@hansschotterradler3772]

Yes, same here; but SPYD is practically designed to underperform. Better stay with DGRO or SCHD for the dividend.

[@piraveenvenkatkumar6490]

what app is that

[@rynewilliams]

This is from Seeking Alpha!

[@normanrayburn1459]

[@rynewilliams]
