FDVV defines itself as a smart beta ETF with a quality-dividend growth DNA. A characteristic that in the past brought it great disappointments: underperformance. But today gives it strong momentum, enviable by other dividend-oriented ETFs.
Fidelity High Dividend ETF has outperformed SCHD and DGRO in total returns the last five years, but its significant outperformance is recent amid AI hype. FDVV's focus on high dividend yield and sector tilts, but its 15% weight on dividend growth results in inconsistent annual payout growth lagging both SCHD and DGRO. FDVV offers meaningful diversification when paired with SCHD, but not DGRO, if its dividend metrics can stabilize.
Launched on 09/12/2016, the Fidelity High Dividend ETF (FDVV) is a smart beta exchange traded fund offering broad exposure to the Style Box - All Cap Value category of the market.
