Dapper Dividends#282~ SCHD Expert: Is It DEAD or Just Sleeping?Is SCHD dead or just sleeping? We sit down with Craig (SCHD Stan) to answer the tough questions about why SCHD went from the #1 dividend ETF to having investors posting "I'm done with SCHD" online. We break down the March 2025 reconstitution that pushed energy to 20%, why SCHD returned 0% while the Nasdaq soared 19%, and whether the 63% payout ratio threatens dividend sustainability.

If you own SCHD or are thinking about buying...

That's after we vetted four other dividend ETFs with the lowest expense ratios. SCHD not only charges less than DGRO, they also have twice the assets which means more leeway for future fee reductions. It all comes down to the index each ETF tracks and their underlying methodologies. Performance, especially in the short term, means very little. The winner is very clear. It's the dividend ETF with the highest yield and dividend growth. Without a doubt, we believe the best dividend growth ETF...
