-
VIG
Vanguard Dvnd Etf - $46.46
- 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."

-
DVY
Ishares Dow Sel D - $42.65
- +2.11%
- $41.90
"...the first dividend ETF, has gathered more than $7 billion in assets. It invests in 100 of the highest dividend-yielding securities (excluding real estate investment trusts) in the Dow Jones U.S. Total Market Index."

-
FDL
Ftetf Morningstar - $13.5164
- 0.00%
- $N/A
"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."

-
SDY
Spdr S&p Dividend - $45.594
- +1.91%
- $45.01
"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."

-
CVY
Claymore/zacks Yi - $17.43
- +1.93%
- $17.24
"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"
