Unique S&P 500 ETF: High Income, Low Volatility Bring Investor Love: SPHD

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: When an ETF invests in the S&P 500 while offering less risk and a big yield, what’s not to love?

PowerShares S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility (SPHD) filters the iconic index for 75 companies with the highest dividend yields, then extracts 50 of those that are least volatile.

SPHD was up 5.99% this year through March 2 vs. a 2.39% loss for SPY. It has also outperformed SPY, the largest and oldest U.S. exchange traded fund, over the past three years.
Regards,
Ted

    I got in SPHD after David Snowball mentioned it under "High Dividends, Low Volatility" in his March Commentary.
