iShares International Select Dividend ETF offers 5.5% yield with strong 3-year rebound but faces near-term risks

The iShares International Select Dividend ETF (IDV) provides investors with high dividend yields of about 5.5% by focusing on non-U.S. stocks, avoiding heavy tech exposure. The fund has nearly doubled its total return over the past three years, boosted by rising energy prices and a recovery in international banks. However, its dividend payouts can vary due to currency fluctuations and company performance. Despite its strong recent performance, the fund carries a higher expense ratio and potential short-term challenges, leading to a neutral outlook from the analyst.

The iShares International Select Dividend ETF (IDV) is noted alongside Pluang's market data for context. For readers following international dividend stocks, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Sep 17, 2026 22:21 WIB: out of 150 priced US stocks tradable on Pluang, 102 rose and 46 fell today.
