Better Dividend Growth ETFs

A couple of months later, in "An Open Letter to the ETF Industry: Create a Better Dividend Growth Product," I appealed to the ETF industry. After that article was published, I stopped searching for a decent dividend growth ETF, but a couple have since come to my attention that may be better examples of what the ETF makers could do if they tried. Let's take a look at them:

PowerShares S&P 500 High Dividend Portfolio (SPHD): SPHD is fairly concentrated at 50 stocks, although that is a typical size for many dividend-growth portfolios. The caps on individual holding size and sector size will likely produce a fairly diversified portfolio. Global X Super Dividend ETF (SDIV):In terms of portfolio management, I found more to like about this fund than any other that I have examined. Its quarterly review schedule sets it apart, as does its efforts to react to certain events. It tosses out companies that cut their dividends, although it waits until the next quarterly review to do so.
