QDF: Quality-Heavy Dividend ETF Does Not Impress On Performance, Yield Fronts

QDF is a passively managed vehicle that targets U.S. dividend stocks with robust quality, with the key parameters assessed being management efficiency, profitability, and cash flows. After two reconstitutions since my previous note, QDF still delivers exemplary quality, with a fairly expensive valuation as the downside. Also, there is a nuanced improvement on the growth front. I remain lukewarm about QDF despite its improved growth profile, mostly because its performance is still unconvincing. Its 2.3% weighted-average dividend yield does not appeal to me as well.
