Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (SCHD)

There's always more to the matter than mere yield (although dividend yields are still important).

Major index funds are heavily concentrated with the same few tech names. How can investors avoid overlapping stocks?

Investing $500 a month in these six ETFs could put you on track for millionaire status.

Its worst calendar year since 2012 was a loss of around 5.5%. What has that steadiness cost in the good years?

The 10-year Treasury is at its highest level in nearly a quarter-century.

The Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF is much more than a popular payout product.

Locking in a high yield with Treasury bonds is becoming increasingly appealing.

The future is bright for this fund that offers both income and growth.

There are far more important factors to consider when choosing between these two funds than just the yield.

Investing is often viewed as a choice between growth and value, but dividend investing is the approach I would suggest investors take.

Two different tools for two different jobs.

Dividends are a good reason to buy stocks, but not the only reason.

The best funds are built on quality and an ability to withstand different economic environments.

SHCD is missing some of the healthiest dividend stocks.

A buyer from late 2011 now gets around 12% a year on what they paid. Can a buyer at today's price expect the same?

Steady and consistent monthly investing is the key to making it happen.

Even modest monthly investments made consistently can generate a significant dividend income stream over time.

Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF is a solid high-yield option, but you may want to consider PepsiCo, Enterprise, and Realty Income instead.

These funds have different approaches for investing in dividend stocks.

Vanguard's lower 0.04% expense ratio and 589-stock portfolio offer broader diversification, while Schwab's 3.1% yield appeals to income-focused investors.

These fast-growing ETFs will likely be trading at attractive valuations after a market pullback.

It's as stable and consistent as you'd hope from a dividend ETF.

Modest pullbacks are normal and shouldn't alter long-term investment strategies.

SCHD also has one of the best track records of growing over time too.

Higher yields will hurt stocks and reduce the value of older bonds.
