FYI: Dividend ETFs have a clear appeal: generating income. And with dividend growth a recurring theme this year both in the U.S. and abroad, what’s not to like about an equity portfolio that shells out, say, an 8% dividend yield?
There are some 40 high dividend yield ETFs, several of which are billion-dollar-plus funds boasting good liquidity and narrow trading spreads. But these funds go about capturing dividend yields in very different ways, with stock selection, sector tilts and factor bets diverging significantly between comparable funds.
