Hunt For Yield: How Do All The High Yielding ETFs Stack Up
Well done. We didn't buy any HY/HI until mid-May, 2009; buying SPHIX, FAGIX and DIHYX and still hold these funds. Chart compare PFF, HYG, SPHIX, FAGIX, DIHYX NOTE: the left slider icon below the chart may be moved full left for about a 1,400 day view, from the standard 200 day view Those who have held this sector have done well during the past 3.5 years. Regards, Catch
Just checking a few I don't own. I do have SCHD, SPLV but wish to add another. Since I have a Fido account, FSDIX looks interesting except for a very bad 2008. It has a higher amount to real estate than others which makes it good for me.
The preferreds have done so well since they did so poorly in 2008 and have recovered nicely. I have held PDT, a closed end fund with leverage I like very much.
