Low-Risk Dividend Funds

Dividend investors have no shortage of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) thrown their way these days. But beware the management firms that are launching high-yield products in pursuit of your investing dollars with no clear mission to preserve your capital or ensure those high-yield dividends continue.

All income-oriented investors should beware of chasing yield or making risky sector bets that could burn them if the market turns. If you're an ETF investor, you should think about starting with these five low-risk funds: Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG), iShares Dow Jones Select Dividend Index Fund (DVY), SPDR S&P Dividend ETF (SDY), WisdomTree Large Cap Dividend Fund (DLN) and Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM).
