Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: VanEck is planning to launch a fund that will track the Morningstar US Dividend Valuation Index. The VanEck Vectors Morningstar High Dividend ETF has a somewhat more complex methodology than most dividend funds. Regards, Ted http://www.etf.com/sections/daily-etf-watch/etf-target-high-div-stocks
