There are some certainties that come with exploration of dedicated dividend exchange-traded funds. First, there are a lot of dividend ETFs. To be precise, there are 102 dividend ETFs currently trading in the U.S. That is a healthy percentage of the approximately 1,700 exchange-traded products found on U.S. exchanges. Second, as can be said of dividend stocks, the long-term performance of dividend ETFs is stout. For example, the Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG), the largest dividend ETF, has gained around 150% since March 10, 2009, the start of the current bull market. By comparison, the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) is up “just” 90% over that period.
The advantages of monthly dividend stocks and ETFs are obvious. For investors needing current income, monthly dividend stocks increase frequency of payout. For younger, long-term investors, monthly dividend stocks and ETFs boost the power of compounding when those investors opt to reinvest dividends. Here are some examples of dividend ETFs that deliver monthly dividends: WisdomTree LargeCap Dividend Fund (DLN), PowerShares S&P 500 Low Volatility Portfolio (SPLV) and Global X SuperDividend U.S. ETF (DIV).
