This is probably unpopular for this sub -- as long as you won't need that $500 anytime soon, I'd take on more risk. Doesn't mean you need to pick individual stocks, but I'd put less in VT and SCHD and more into QQQ / SPY. Again, this is my suggestion as for what I'd do at 17.
Buy VOO SCHD every paycheck you’re welcome
I got in on a few stocks recently.. DG, ALB, ULTA, and PFE. in total about 4% of my portfolio. I have around 9% cash in MMF in anticipation of any dips i see. Then I have a few stocks that have been sideways for more than a year now.. Will evaluate on the coming days if to sell or keep on holding. TSM, UNP, SCHD and GS.
> My long-term plan is to hold mostly ETFs like VOO, VTI, SCHD/G/Y, etc. Then do that.
>My long-term plan is to hold mostly ETFs like VOO, VTI, SCHD/G/Y, etc. Then what are you doing shoring SPY? If I were in your position, I'd cover your short positions and use any remaining equity to go long on low-fee total-market ETFs. Add to the long positions with any excess income. Don't fret the noise. Check in maybe once a year to make sure your current portfolio aligns with your long term goals. Will SPY go to 400? 360? 300?! Do you care? That depends if you are accumulating or distributing phase.
I'd say it is worse than normal to buy _because there are way better opportunities out there_, including some of the underlying. I would rather own Broadcom Monday morning than SCHD for instance. Basically, you buy SCHD now, you should be ahead in three years. But if you buy AVGO (or whatever) now and switch over to SCHD when its underlying is more in tune with the times, you should do better in three years. Maybe not, but anytime you are making choices you should look at not only what is a good choice but what might be a better choice.
VTSAX/VTIAX 80/20. In retirement, you can shift some to SCHD and other dividend etfs and use the tax free dividends for income.
Answers will vary a lot depending on goals and how each person uses them. Personally, I’m mostly a buy shares and hold investor. I use options as supplemental tools, with two uses for covered calls. 1. I frequently sell monthly, .2-ish delta covered calls on SCHD. The underlying tends to be low volatility. I use this for accumulation and some stability, alongside a more volatile position in that account. The CCs are on pace to bring in about 4% on top of the underlying this year, not counting what the extra shares yield. 2. I look for opportunities to establish positions in stocks or ETFs that are healthy and have 2-5 month periods of underperformance relative to the broad market. Sometimes, I go long shares. Other times, I do buy-writes. Those are generally moves I make anticipating that the shares will get assigned. I choose strikes and duration based on the particular set up, always with a goal of beating a rate of 10%/year (after tax burden, when in my brokerage account). Main point: I have a benchmark for ROI, and make decisions based on each specific position.
Random guy as well, but with that amount I think you could get 2k a month in dividends from JEPI or SCHD. Look into r/dividends and certainly spend some time doing research
You only need one or at most two. VTSAX and VTIAX if you want some international. No reason at all to add VOO, QQQM or SCHD.
SCHD should be in a roth, but not against a taxable account to reep the rewards sooner than 59 years old the roth would require
I hear a lot of ppl mention SCHD. what is better about this ETF than others?
SCHD, SPYG, IJR. You’re welcome.
It's not either/or. Dividend funds like SCHD or VYM have paid over 3% dividends, and over the past decade^1 offered real returns of about 8%, implying that most of the return was in the form of growth (which leads to growing dividends). Because of the underlying growth, it doesn't take too long for that 3.3% dividend to turn into 5% payout on of your original amount. ^^1 ^^Past ^^performance ^^does ^^not ^^guarantee ^^future ^^yada ^^yada ^^yada
Indexing. It's pretty much that simple. Even while being a mostly successful picker and trader I still leave most of it in indexes as a safety net. Hell, even my main current "active" strategy is just using long and short 3x indexes(in very small percentiles of overall portfolio) to mildly augment my buy and hold and those positions change mechanically based off a script I wrote(it's not anything special, just a mildly more interesting trend follow). VTI or VOO or SCHD (or any other low cost broad market ETF) and chill, you'll be happier for it.
OK, in terms of SCHD, yes for sure, looking at it as down now and very likely to do better with a different group of holdings and circumstance in the future, that makes sense.
Hi, thank you for the response. BSV was actually sold today, it was there for fixed income. SCHD has been purchased as it’s been down and I’m bullish it will continue to grow & it further diversifies my portfolio. I do like your approach being heavily invested into tech. I will further invest more into technology with time but it’s relatively volatile so I don’t want to be overly diversified into solely technology.
Commodity stocks rallied so hard today I forgot I had two limit sell orders set. I bought the stocks I planned on this morning but I ended up selling more than buying since I forgot to close those open sell orders. This might be an omen to just put the difference into $AVUV or $SCHD.
23M $35,000 cumulative I want to hear Pros / Cons / general feedback about my current ETF Portfolio’s. I am bullish on technology and growth stocks which is one of the reasons I’m overly invested in technology & growth. Willing to hear criticism against it. Individual: BSV 2.54% MGK 4.05% SCHD 4.89% SOXX 6.62% VGT 17.47% VOO 47.23% (will rebalance to 50% and I add to it monthly) VUG 12.18% Roth: Maximizing yearly JEPI 4.99% (riding for a year or 2) VGT 31.51% VTI 41.12% VUG 11.17% XSD 11.20%
SCHD returns have matched VOO returns in recent years. How does the high interest rate factor into your hypothesis that SCHD will under perform relative to VOO? If anything, shouldn't lower PE companies with earnings not that far out into the future perform better in high interest rate environments?
The easy way is just back test some popular dividend focused index funds SCHD/VYM/SPHD compare there performance to the S&P500 (what is not dividend focused and contains value/growth) None out perform in the long run. Some may out perform certain years then under perform others but none of the funds I have listed has out performed the S&P500 over a long period of time. Others will say "Nope look at these 10 high dividend stocks if you would have invested in these you would have outperformed" Well at that point you are just stock picking, you can always find X number of growth, value, dividend stocks that would outperform and if you are a good stock picker well great, most people are not
At 23 I wouldn't be buying SCHD but then again it's better than half the crap people buy here. Can't go wrong with VTI/SPY. If I'm in my early 20s I'd want a helping of QQQM and let it ride for the long haul.
VTI - 15% KO (Coke Cola) - 30% PG (Proctor and Gamble) - 10% DE (John Deere) - 25% SCHD - 20% Shares are purchased with funds that I can afford to lose.
If you are unsure or need it for something and want to be liquid. Park it in the Schwab Money Market Fund. Most MMF pay over 5% and invest into safe T Bills. Or just keep building index ETFs like SCHB/VTI. Or SCHD which the ex Div date is coming up this month.
> I've never own any dividend fund but it feels like SCHD has a very solid screening criteria Also consider VIG and VYM which are very close in fundamentals to SCHD, and if you want to keep everything in Vanguard funds.
> I can’t afford to lose this money I’ve accumulated Then your course is easy. Sell the principle + x% you're comfortable with as a gain (20?), then let the rest ride. Then take what you've cashed out and buy VTI/VYM/SCHD, etc. I have similar holdings (add CRM as well), but I have high W2 income so don't "need" the investment income so am letting it ride for now. May rebalance at some point.
Just get SCHD if you really want dividends or a target date fund
SPY and SCHD are such disappointments
this is the good news I needed; I sold out of VOO at 379, all in on SCHD; mostly cause I wanted more dividends to pay for things I might need, should I run into hard financial times X\_X but this is the confirmation bias I needed to feel some relief. Thank you OP
SCHD's holdings vary each quarter, sometimes by a bunch, while VOO's holdings change slightly yearly. Right now SCHD has been basically tricked into overvaluing pharmaceuticals (because of covid) and oil/gas (because of Russian war), and thus is -6% ytd while VOO is +11%. Factor ETFs rely on past data so are a bit backward looking but that normally is mostly a good thing. But Covid and the Russian war were abnormal and very strong influences. If you want to hold it for longterm and get it while it is sucking now, not a bad idea, but just know it will likely not start to do well at least until it rebalances next time. On the other hand, SCHD and VOO are now running about the same total return for the past 3, 5 and 10 years, while taking different paths to that performance so if you like them both, probably a good idea to have both, since they partly hedge each other.
SCHD is a solid play, if your close to retirement anyplace is fine. If you a long ways off know your creating an added tax burden so i would hold it in a tax advantaged account. Otherwise im a fan.
Thank you. Is these any realistic way to measure that impact? I'm wondering about it as well but the only please I'm aware of tracking tax cost is Morningstar. It appears like SCHD will out-perform VOO most of the time even with tax cost considered. But I'm happy to hear different opinion on this!
Been adding SCHD incrementally below $70
Before investing, you need to determine a few things. What's your risk tolerance? Are you willing to risk it all for a high potential profit? Do you want stable and realistic growth? Or do you just want to beat inflation and protect your money? Then, you need to determine the time frame. Are you looking for some short-term growth, or is this your retirement plan? You can develop your strategy after working these things out. As for most people, they want safe and realistic growth. Stocks such as VOO, VOOG, SCHG, and SCHD provide just that.
The only 'cost' here is complexity of your portfolio. The dividend will be trivial until you have a larger sum of investments anyway, so whether you have a little in SCHD or a little in VOO versus all in VOO will be inconsequential. (For every $1K, you're talking $15 versus $30 a year) Better to ask what goals adding SCHD will accomplish. It's not diversifying. The only benefit I see is possibly making your portfolio more conservative / lower beta. Maybe that's what you want. But if you're just reinvesting dividends and accumulating wealth, total return is what matters. Splitting VOO into VOO + SCHD has minimal advantage, and I don't think its worth the complexity. Splitting VOO into VOO + VXUS, on the other hand, has the advantage of diversifying into something, and might be worth the complexity.
If considering VOO vs SCHD, is there any benefit of putting money in SCHD if the $ amount is small? Sounds like dividend & div growth is a strong driver for SCHD, but the dividend would be small considering a small amount of $ invested. Is it better to lump sum more $ into VOO in this case? instead of splitting two portions into VOO and SCHD

The funds your bank offers are called mutual funds. These typically have higher fees. There are also numerous ETFs which follow index funds. Such examples include VTI, VOO, SCHD, MOAT, etc. Some of these are actively managed and some are passively managed and follow the index. I would encourage you to look here rather than at whatever your bank is offering.
Need guidance how to invest $800,000 cash Extremely blessed to have received a nice windfall but need serious guidance where to put the cash, especially because of my current circumstances. Background: \- 42 yrs old, not married, no kids \- \*\*Currently unemployed and majorly struggling w/ career direction (☹) \- Interest income: $4,000 p/mo; Expenses $2,500 p/ mo \- Do not own real estate \- 0 debt \- Dollar cost averaging $1,000 per month among investments Financial Breakdown: \- $1,121,700 in liquid cash (currently in HYS @ 4.55%, generating $4,000 mo. income) \- $98,000 in SCHD (dividend equity) \- $10,000 in iBond \- $19,000 in ROTH IRA (VTIVX) \- $36,000 in Vanguard Brokerage - ETF’s & Stocks - (VEIPX, VGSTX, VTIVX, AMZ, DIS, SBUX, T) \- $15,000 in Wealthfront ETF’s (45% stock, 15% RE, 11% Foreign, 10% div growth, 9% emerging, 5% muni bonds, 5% commodities I would like to leave $300K liquid cash so that leaves me about $800K to invest. Should I invest more in growth (regardless of no employment income)? CD Ladder? REIT’s? Buy property? I previously had help with my current investments but I am not too savvy and desperately need guidance. Thank you in advance!
I would put 40% in SCHD, 16.5% in QQQM, and 10% in VTI. The remaining 1/3rd would go to different investments but that depends on age and how close to retirement you are. Not sure how to roll it over, all at once or gradually over a year, but this is roughly what I would do. Not financial advice.
If you'd like to incorporate a lesson in the mix, I would recommend an ETF or an index fund. The lesson being the eggs in one basket is usually not a good idea. VTSAX, SCHD, QQQM, and FNILX are some good ones.
100k in spy 100k in brk 100k in SCHD/NOBL leave the rest as is
I agree with your REIT diversification idea. I'd juice your SCHD and DGRO results with a few higher-yielding solid value stocks as well. And I'd branch out a bit to include some BDCs and preferreds.
If you don't want to see a financial planner, here is what I would recommend. Start with putting two years worth of your expenses in a HYSA (guessing this would be $200K - $300K), then with the remaining, I'd allocate, based on your retirement time horizon, between QQQM, VTI, VXUS, SCHD, JPEQ, Treasuries/Bonds. If you want you could hold 5-10% back to play individual stocks. like GOOGL or MSFT, fine.
What ETFs would you recommend? Other threads just say VOO, SCHD, QQQ or VTI.
Put half in SCHD with the dividend rate of around 3.5 percent you’d make 17.5k annually from dividends
VOO, SCHD, and SPYG and the three pillars of my Roth IRA they’ve served me well. I would only stick to blue chip company’s if you aren’t going with an etf or index fund.
If you're not a sophisticated investor and just want something super diverse that will outperform most investments without going down as hard as the broader market when that happens... conventional wisdom is SCHD and chill. It's the Schwab 'boring' index fund. High diversity. Low volatility. Keeping most of your net worth in Google obviously is a high risk move.
Isn't the most common advice on this sub "Ignore the noise and DCA SPY/VTI/SCHD, etc"? Explain in your view why that's such poor advice.
Those are good questions. He's an advisor as well but honestly I don't use that aspect enough. I believe it's around 1% annual that's paid quarterly out of the 50k I gave him towards the account. Yes he has sold some stocks for tax harvesting. I agree about DIY, although I love picking stocks but I'm leaning more towards VTI, QQQM and SCHD etfs as well as my Roth TSP.
Simplifying REIT investing?: Disclaimer: I'm not looking for financial advise like what are the best investments to make, but I'm hoping to hear from other people's opinions on this subject, especially those who may have dealt with what I am dealing with right now. I am trying to keep my portfolio as simple as possible while also attaining \~4% yield. For stock companies, I just invest in SCHD and DGRO. I want to invest in REITs through index funds as well to keep my portfolio simple, but either the funds have low yield or invest in not so good REITs that offer high yields. To solve this, I decided to invest in just a few diversified REITs, so I don't have to track many different REITs and keep my portfolio simple. I decided to invest in O and WPC. The problem is the more I research into REITs, the more I overthink about what to invest in. For example, O and WPC are primarily retail companies, so maybe I should diversify more into different sectors like industrial, office, healthcare, mortgage, etc. But then, my portfolio won't be as simplified as I wanted it to be. Then, I might think about if it is even worth diversifying since retail REITs seem to perform well (e.g. majority of aristocrat REITs are retail). But then, I worry about something bad that could happen to the retail sector that would destroy my portfolio (like what's happening to the office sector right now). Or, I may think if I just invest in aristocrat REITs, no matter how much overlap they have, I will be fine. ​ I really appreciate any inputs on my thoughts and what you all think about the subject.
You are correct, IV is usually low. But it doesn’t stay low. Most ‘option traders’ do not like what I do. But I am building out a dividend/income portfolio, however, and I have found ETF’s provide less volatility than single stocks. I always have a good handful of otm put orders open to sell on a handful of ETF’s (mostly SCHD right now) should the market tank, and on the occasional drop I will pick up more. The goal is $120k a year from divs + option premiums. I think once this debt ceiling charade is behind us it will be back to ’economy sucks, inflation way too high, more interest rate hikes’ so I am expecting more volatility to occur.
I’m surprised to see that CSPs on SCHD and VIG are two of your bigger strategies. I figured IV would be low on these. What’s your strategy with these?
Get rid of QQQM and SCHD. VOO and chill.
SCHD seems to be too heavy reduce it 10-20%. If you like grow QQQ or QQQM is a very good one for brave ones. Those are about the same but QQQ has longer tract record.
I started a Roth IRA a few years ago and was wondering if this looks like a good long term portfolio? I am not an experienced investor and consider myself moderate in terms of risk taking. I am 58, still working, and I don't plan on taking any distributions for 10-11+ years. Would appreciate any feedback or suggestions. Thank you. I have been dollar cost averaging into: 40% VOO (S&P 500 ETF) 25% SCHD (Dividend ETF) 20% BND (Bond ETF) 10% O (REIT - Real Estate) 5% GOLD (Gold Mining)
Hey all, just looking for general feedback on my portfolio. I’m in my early 30s and I have about 62k within the following holdings: SPY: 37% MSFT: 24% QQQ: 13% MPWR: 10% AMD: 7% SCHD: 6% PG: 3% I have no gauge as to whether I’ve invested a good amount for my age. My schooling set my investing back a bit so I’m not sure how I measure up other than when I use investment calculators online. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!
It’s a good idea too. When I first got into options, I had no idea really what I was getting into but options have always interested me so when I first ventured into it I just started jotting down my trades and very soon I had like ten. Then twenty. And then the end of the year came. So I started again tracking but as a new year. My s/s is pretty simple but a bit clumsy now since it has grown. It’s turned into a rather large s/s over the years and I want to redesign it. The first three pages: Summary by Year (years are columns, rows are months) pulls in data from History, next is Active by position and month, and then the detailed History which shows each transaction and what happened. Every sheet after those three is the detail for a specific stock or etf. It’s not great but suffices for now, lots of room for improvement. There are other people on here that probably have better ideas. What I do have that suits me is that I can quickly go to a tab, say SCHD in one of our a/s and see the detailed history. The change I want to do next is to capture the cumulative amount of dividends in total and for each div stock/etf, and the cumulative g/l on CCs and one for CSPs. By stock/etf, by month, by year, etc. I want to be able to summarize more of this data by g or l by month and by stock. My goal is to cruise at a 12% annual return with options and dividends. The handful of ETF’s I am focused on is SCHD, VIG, and VYM. And looking into a few others. With that in mind, options is a tool. Manually calculating a few of my etf returns, SCHD at 70 I think yields about 10%\~12% and VIG when it was at 155 was about 19%. All that being said, I use options as a tool. I am less an option trader and more of an income chaser and realize it is very feasible to get six figure passive income (divs + option income).
Close to $450k cumulative last 15 years. I have tracked every single trade I have done from the beginning. Lots of singles and doubles, no home runs although I thought I was going to get my first one with ATVI but as you know, the MSFT deal did not go through. No screaming big year where we went out and bought matching his/her Porsches. Mostly CC’s and CSP’s but last couple years been doing SPY spreads. My trading is actually, boring, nothing exciting really. CSP’s on SCHD and VIG, and CC’s. Focused on building up the account, and…not working. Not selling anything, just trying to build out a dividend portfolio. Good luck. This is a good place to learn from a handful of talented people.
VIG and VYM are the best ones from an expense ratio perspective. But, like others have said before, dividends are part of the value of a stock. If you get a 3.5% yielding stock/ETF, then its value drops by that amount. So, most recommend reinvesting it in the ticker. You could create a dividend snowball...buy shares of a better stock/ETF with dividends from others. Ultimately, it all depends on your goals. JEPI or SCHD would be better options for big dividends. Or pick up a few REITs like O, or a REITs ETF like SCHA or REET
I know right! Doesn't even mention SCHD anywhere in the post.
Hello, I am 19 years old in college studying finance, and somewhat new to investing but have read Bogle's books and done some research, and I have roughly 55k to invest and am looking for long-term buy-and-hold growth as my ability to handle risk is high. I don't have any plans on needing this money any time soon, so I have a long time horizon. After doing some research I have put together a portfolio of 94% stock and 6% bonds that is allocated into some broad ETFs. I know the portfolio may be a bit overkill in terms of specifics, but it is largely low-cost and gives me some freedom to adjust the different allocations as I see fit. Here is how I have it allocated: International: 14% VEA 9% VWO Domestic: 53% VOO 11% VXF 7% SCHD Bond: 4% BND 2% BNDX Any thoughts/input would be helpful, and I am wondering if this is too specific and if I should instead just hold VTI/VXUS.
SCHD, JEPI, O, ABR, UPST Selling covered calls on UPST… super volatile, so great premium
Brokerage: VTI, SSO, and a relatively small position of PLTR + covered calls. Roth IRA: SCHD, SSO, and a relatively small position buying Jan ‘24 XLF 34 calls. That’s all I’m holding right now, excluding 401k and HSA.
Nikola is trash, but I like your VOO and SCHD. You can just keep dollar cost averaging into those and you should be good.
This type of question is no different than last year when everybody was praising oil and energy stocks, or funds like SCHD because tech was taking a beat. What if in 6 month banks are out performing, which could happen, are you then moving all to financials?
You can always replicate Wealtfront's allocation as there's only 6 or so categories. Manual tax loss harvesting isn't that hard to do. When the market has been down check for unrealized losses and purchase a similar ETF. Each category has similar ETFs to TLH between (e.g. VTI=SCHB, VIG=SCHD, VEA=SCHF, VWO=SCHE). Don't forget about wash sales.
How much are you down in dollar amount? Sell that shit and put it in SCHD (good value now). Then just [harvest the losses](https://www.fidelity.com/viewpoints/personal-finance/tax-loss-harvesting). > Remaining losses can offset $3,000 of income on a tax return in one year. > Unused losses can be carried forward indefinitely.
Someone your age should be avoiding the concept behind SCHD at all costs. Why do you want to pay more taxes without more income? Your bottom line should just be total return (coupled with the consideration of how much risk you want to take). If some dividend stock's total return is massive and you have to pay some taxes on its dividends, you shouldn't care, the net bottom line is all that matters. But just getting dividends without a corresponding positive return make a dividends a negative. Invest in quality ETFs and companies that you judge will get you the best return and be within your risk parameters. Don't focus on the trivia of cost or dividends or not. That's all resolved in the total return.
TXN said AI, SCHD is being saved.
The saving grace for SCHD and JEPI is the dividend, I sort of treat these two as bonds where any growth they sustain when I decide to sell is an added bonus. SCHD moreso since its dividend is qualified(taxed less)
Hating my defensive portfolio recently SCHD/CI/JEPI
Damn the people who pump these funds are out here downvoting in full force. No one mentioning SCHD down almost 8% YTD though....
I See SCHD you get a mix of a few good choices. I always hear you can't beat a well managed index fund. Probably a good place to keep some money. Good time to pick up more it looks like.
Instead of individual stocks, consider VOO and high dividend ETFs like VYM, SCHD. Also, fuck you.
Learn about the benefits of broad index fund ETFs and high dividend ETFs. Start with VOO, JEPI, SCHD, VYM. Don't rush into losing your new money on risky bets.
Haha I hear ya. I have KO and SCHD for the dividends. Just looking for some growth. SMCI is something I’m interested in as well
So during one of the greatest bull markets in American History, you've willingly held onto a (in your words) "flaming turd" because...why? Google "opportunity cost", absorb the concept, then sell that shit, harvest the losses, and put it into a real company/-ies.. Pfizer, AMZN, even SCHD looking good now. 17 years all while SPY was ripping higher, lol...
