RDVY: Why Bother With An Inferior Strategy?
I rate RDVY a hold: its dividend growth strategy fails to outperform the market and is more volatile than broad large-cap ETFs like VOO. RDVY's portfolio is concentrated, has high turnover (57%), and a high expense ratio (0.48%), and delivers lower risk-adjusted returns than the market. Despite a reputation for resilience, RDVY's dividend yield is only marginally higher than VOO, and its risk metrics are worse, making it a less attractive option.

When it comes to passive income, many investors often flock to the stocks with the highest dividend yields. But the companies that pay the highest dividends might also have the least room to grow because there's nowhere left to invest their excess cash.

RDVY: Outperforms Peers Despite Lower Dividend Yield
RDVY offers a focused portfolio of high-quality, dividend-growing companies, with strong selection criteria and quarterly rebalancing for optimal exposure. While the starting yield is low at 1.6%, RDVY delivers impressive dividend growth, compounding income for long-term, tax-efficient investors. RDVY has outperformed popular dividend ETF SCHD in total return, mainly due to greater technology exposure, but lags broad market ETFs like SPY and QQQ.
