  • VIG

  • 0.00%
  • $N/A

"one of the cheapest dividend ETFs, with an expense ratio of 0.26%. Some rivals charge as much as 0.60%. But fees aren’t everything here. VIG’s current yield — slightly less than 1.6% — is on the low side, as is its total return of roughly 7% since its inception in late April 2006."

"invests in the top 100 stocks of the Morningstar Dividend Leaders Index. These are the index’s highest-yielding stocks, ranked by the consistency with which they pay dividends and the ability to sustain those dividends going forward. Three securities — Citigroup, Bank of America, and Altria — together make up more than one-fourth of the fund."

"invests in the 50 highest dividend-yielding S&P Composite 1500 constituents. This index tracks equities that have consistently increased dividends every year for at least 25 years. Investing in these long-term dividend-paying stocks reduces the risk that the fund’s holdings will cut their dividends."

"aims to double the yield of other dividend-paying ETFs. The fund invests in high-yield securities such as preferred shares, master limited partnerships, closed-end funds, American Depository Receipts, and real estate investment trusts. It’s a riskier play, since the holdings don’t all have a long history of regular, stable dividends"

A. Case, I don't know which is sadder; the
fact that you keep asking this question
or the fact that few others can keep it
straight(myself included). LOL

I think the transaction has to settle
before the record date, so that would be
Dec. 5th or 6th. Sell on Jan. 1st.
Maybe...LOL
