SCHD ETF: Defensive Dividend Play in Shaky Markets
from The Daily News Now! Business
In uncertain markets, one investor is betting big on the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (SCHD). This fund tracks the Dow Jones U.S. Dividend one hundred Index, focusing on high-quality dividend stocks with a 3.4% yield, significantly higher than the S&P 500s 1.1%. SCHDs defensive edge, historically lower volatility, and solid returns make it an attractive choice. Its portfolio, with nearly 20% in energy stocks like Chevron and ConocoPhillips, is well-positioned for potential growth amid oil tensions. Even if oil prices dip, these companies growth plans and dividend yields make SCHD a smart investment for the future. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
