SDEM

I looked at some data, not sure of the exact holding of Hyundai you’re looking for but I see holdings for various parts of Hyundai in SDEM and IDRV. I think IDRV directly holds Hyundai Mobis which I think is the business unit that partnered with Boston Dynamics.

I'm in CEFs and like it. I have a small amount in PHT, yes it pays every month as is taxed as regular income, but I like getting the monthly money and the 8.8% return. The share price plummeted when interest rates went up but has been steady since then. Almost the same with SDEM but riskier. Now paying 7+%. Monthly money and compounding when I don't need the money now appeals to me. I have significantly more money is very safe places earning less. Somehow a tiny bit in something riskier works for me mentally.

I was making some moves today. Selling most of what I had purchased in 2021 so I could use the money for down-payment on a large purchase. I noticed SDEM is untradeable on the Robinhood app. It appears available for trade on Webull. Not sure if I might have missed something such as that particular stock is unavailable due to certain countries being involved or Robinhood just being Robinhood? I'll check again tomorrow and see if there's an update whether or not it's still untradeable.

They did a bunch of reverse splits yesterday. Fund Split Ratio Global X SuperDividend ETF (SDIV) 1:3 Global X MSCI SuperDividend Emerging Markets ETF (SDEM) 1:3 Global X SuperDividend REIT ETF (SRET) 1:3 Global X Education ETF (EDUT) 1:3 Global X MSCI China Real Estate ETF (CHIR) 1:3 Global X Emerging Markets Internet & E-commerce ETF (EWEB) 1:3 Global X Blockchain & Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITS) 1:4 Global X Blockchain ETF (BKCH) 1:4 Effective after market close on December 19, 2022, the funds listed above will effect a reverse stock split at the above ratios. The reverse stock split will increase the price per share of the Fund with a proportionate decrease in the number of shares outstanding. For example, every three pre-split shares will result in receipt of one post-split share, which will be priced three times higher than the net asset value (NAV) of a pre-split share. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/global-x-etfs-announces-eight-etf-reverse-stock-splits-301683213.html

Because the SP500 still beats them pretty good when you account for total growth with dividends reinvested [https://www.portfoliovisualizer.com/backtest-portfolio...](https://www.portfoliovisualizer.com/backtest-portfolio?s=y&timePeriod=4&startYear=1985&firstMonth=1&endYear=2021&lastMonth=12&calendarAligned=true&includeYTD=false&initialAmount=10000&annualOperation=0&annualAdjustment=0&inflationAdjusted=true&annualPercentage=0.0&frequency=4&rebalanceType=1&absoluteDeviation=5.0&relativeDeviation=25.0&reinvestDividends=true&showYield=false&showFactors=false&factorModel=3&benchmark=VFINX&portfolioNames=true&portfolioName1=SDIV&portfolioName2=DVYE&portfolioName3=SDEM&symbol1=SDIV&allocation1_1=100&symbol2=DVYE&allocation2_2=100&symbol3=SDEM&allocation3_3=100)

>Why wouldn’t this be the best place to park my money and make ~10% or so year over year? Why don't you look at the total returns of these dividend ETFs? Can your dividends overcome the loss in share price? You won't make ~10% year after year. SDIV: 1.85% since inception in 2011 DVYE: 1.61% since inception in 2012 SDEM: 2.73% since inception in 2015 DIV: 4.1% since inception in 2013 High dividend stocks can actually be very risky because there is usually a reason why the share price is so low and making the yield so high. Often this is because the stock is at risk of losing their dividends (AT&T), or in extremely cyclical sectors like oil and mining, or worse tax treatment (LPs, REITs). A solid ETF would be VTI in general, or if you really want dividends, a dividend growth ETF or quality ETF, not a high dividend ETF.

I scooped up so SDEM shares not long ago. Seems to be at a nice valuation and the yield is pretty descent. Expense ratio is a little high, though.

I personally would avoid mega caps like apple and Microsoft. I could be wrong, but my logic is that they’re already gigantic. And they’re trading at high premiums. Considering you’re younger it would make more sense to look for good companies that are highly profitable and much smaller. Not exactly 500m or smaller companies. But ones AT LEAST one-a few billion and higher that ideally have track records of consistency and profitability. I just view them as having much more growth potential than the big hogs. I personally have been buying a lot of value/dividend ETF’s lately such as DIV, SDIV, SDEM, SPYD, and a few others. But that’s regarding my own thesis. Most people suggest SPY, VOO, VTI, or any other S&P/total market indexes. I’d recommend going that route for a while. Get situated and start learning more about the markets. Once you’re comfortable maybe invest in hand selected companies. But that approach usually needs a lot of time and research to stay on top of things. Just depends how active you want to be. Also, as of right now I view bonds as practical garbage. The returns are minuscule and almost not even worth it. You won’t get hardly any growth whatsoever. Just my opinion, though.
