[@pioneer7777777]

Do the end portfolio values take into account the fees? Like TDIV, the highest non error portfolio value in the 10 year test has a 0.5% fee. So that's $125 from the first year, so that's about $1500 at least in fees over time that are then not reinvested. Hard to tell if that's reflected here or not.

[@ThomasCandy-dv1hu]

[@sdrs95a]

At 9:44 on the video, DGRW finishes 5th. Looking at the top 5 ETFs at 9:44, DGRW has a much higher (better) Sharpe Ratio for 3, 5, & 10 years vs the 4 ETs above it. DGRW is great for portfolio growth risk/reward, return/standard deviation. DGRW is solid dividend growth w/ long term returns, with below average risk. I own it in my taxable brokerage acct, it is also good in non-taxable accts. None of these pay much in dividends,, if you are retired, better to own for dividends: JEPQ, SVOL, STK, ADX, SPYI, QDPL, etc.

[@CaptainProx]

While a lot of people are debunking the effectiveness of PRF, I think DGRO is the most well rounded Dividend ETF Out of these ETFs it specializes a bit more into long term Capital Gain, but while it isn’t THE top for Capital Gain on this list, it has a considerably higher dividend income than almost all of the ETFs above it It’s also worth noting that it specializes in Dividend GROWTH. It’s never missed a year of dividend growth or payment, and dividend growth is often considered the most important part of Dividend investing for most people. I’ve chosen to pair DGRO with QQQ and SCHD

[@Yesthatisme14]

If the dividend is that low, why dont just invest in a s&p 500 etf? They have almost the same yield but low expense ratio. Am I missing something here?

Even while $300k mightt seem like much, one bad decision might seriously deplete it. As such, exercise extreme caution in where and how you invest. It is advisable to diversify while retaining 70-80% in secure investments. Along with your budget, you should think about financial advising.

@AverageJoeInvestor love your videos and content.

How do you think this future environment in which the Fed will cut rates will impact the future results in terms of capital appreciation and overall performance of these ETFs? My initial thoughts are ETF's like SPYD or SCHD will perform better as many of the holding are more interest rate sensitive. Thoughts???

For the 10-yr and lump sum scenario, the expense ratio is quite high compared to 5th-place VIG. Additionally, the highest sector for top ETF RDVY is at 40% financial compared to 22% techs of VIG. To me, VIG is more “balanced” and not too top-heavy in on sector. Personally I think we need to look at more than just a bottom line. By the way, just because VIG is 5th, the difference is not that much for a 10-year period. Oh… I sure like to see RDVY would survive 2008.

[@watso059]

[@MGmirkin]

What about sector ETFs like tech / semiconductor ETFs, or healthcare, or building? Particularly interested in tech / semi, as they seem to have been generally exploding over the last decade or so: I'm thinking stuff like XLK, SMH, ROM, USD, etc. I know their "dividends" can be a bit variable / spotty, but their growth / capital appreciation seems pretty amazing... Yeah? If we're just looking for total portfolio value growth over the long term, it seems like some of them are pretty heavy-hitting. Granted, since their dividends are spotty, maybe they're not the most reliable on that front? But, if one were to buy "growth" type stocks long-term, and then switch over to "dividends" / "income" at the end, would one be better off than had one simply thrown in with dividends over the long term? Who'd come out ahead in the end? Also, granted, no guaranteed that tech/semi will be "hot" in another 10-20 years [though, no guarantee it won't still be]. So, there's maybe the issue of it being a bubble of sorts, and the possibility that the growth might not last forever, or might back-track as some unforeseen point in the future [when you need to transition from "growth" to "income"?]...

Your PRF numbers are still sus, even though you checked two sources. @15:25 Your spreadsheet shows the dividend at $0.38 (rounded from $0.3763). That is NOT accounting for the 5:1 split. The adjusted dividend on 9/19/2014 is actually $0.0753. I think that the dividend data is not adjusted for the 5:1 split while the share price data you got was. I ran PRF through portfolio visualizer and dont get even close to those income levels, dividends reinvested or not. Your calculations have almost the entire history of PRF dividends at 5 times the rate that they actually were paid at. The sudden drop that you speak of on the dividend yield is literally when the 5:1 split happened...in 2023. All the dividends on your table leading up to the one paid in June 2023 forward, all need to be divided by 5.

How are you calculating the dividend yield? It may still need to be updated for PRF. Thanks.

[@bills1779]

Why didn't you add SCHG into the mix? Or did i miss that ?

[@rayb6852]

It's not a dividend etf

[@bills1779]

It is ... granted it doesn't pay that much, but still pays. Google it ...

[@zski1]

You just have to pay close attention to the expense ratios and strike an even balance because it can eat away those gains.

[@lamwlw]

but most of these Etf dividend yield were less than 2%?

[@BarutSeVeR]

super infos. thanks

[@killersentra]

Scared to know how PRF will be taxed.

[@rayb6852]

IRS with a big smile when someone puts that in a brokerage account

[@Asstronauts93]

I wish SCHD would fix its holdings so theres less weight on the top 10

[@dogelife7901]

Never will happen. Those are the ones keeping it all afloat. In fact if you just invested in those you'd probably come out ahead 95/100 times.

Interesting video

[@mehtar66]

I have SCHD and realty income O for the passive income

[@fastdeliveryl708]

[@ThomasCandy-dv1hu]

@@fastdeliveryl708 My Roth "Retirement profile" is on Stash ? Thats where I buy mine

[@mathewwillner1]

I think I might put some FDL into my portfolio. I really like that qualified dividend income yield

[@SmilingAlpineSkiing-vg3lk]

Excellent

[@tyreecustard8169]

People are saying he made a mistake on ETF PRF can someone explain how please? I’m a new investor cause I was about to put Al my money on PRF 😂

[@idiocracyishere4531]

Rank these against the total return from the sp500. Capital gains will out perform them all by far.

[@harsharao3555]

SPYD hasnt done well for me. I have had it forpadt 6 years.

[@Ivan-tx3ji]

Thanks for that insight. I was thinking about it

[@jamesloehr641]

What about vgt ?

[@samsamys5190]

It's not a divident etf

[@ca2k4191]

Just add a percentage or two of Bitcoin to your portfolio

[@AverageJoeInvestor]

THANK YOU for watching and for leaving your $0.02 in the comments! 👍😎

[@absurdnerd7624]

BITO is a better way to play Bitcoin...pays a monthly dividend.

[@peterbailey5237]

I have 10 dividend stocks in a portfolio. Even with some overlap of some of the stocks and an ETF, is investing in an ETF a good idea? I don’t have the time or expertise to analyze individual dividend stock performance and buy/sell at best time.
