The iShares Select Dividend ETF (DVY), Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (SCHD), and Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM) each manage over $10 billion and outperformed the S&P 500 with one-year returns ranging from 17% to 35%, while offering yields between 2.3% and 3.3%. These ETFs focus on dividend-paying companies but differ in strategy: DVY emphasizes high dividend payers with stable payouts, SCHD screens for quality and dividend growth, and VYM offers broad diversification. Despite beating the S&P 500 over the past year, their five-year returns lag behind the index, reflecting the trade-off between income and long-term growth. Investors should choose based on income needs, risk tolerance, and preference for diversification or quality screening.
As of Oct 26, 2026 03:51 WIB, SCHD trades at USD 35.27 with a 1-day change of -0.37% on Pluang. VYM is priced at USD 161.50, down 0.68% for the day. These dividend ETFs maintain significant market caps, with SCHD at $118.70 billion and VYM at $95.80 billion, reflecting their strong presence among dividend-focused investments.
