NOBL: A Bid To Dividend Aristocrats To Begin 2025
Consumer Staples, Real Estate, and Health Care sectors are at YTD highs, with XLP producing alpha amid broader market volatility. NOBL has returned 4% YTD, outperforming SPY's 1.4%, but I maintain a hold rating due to premium valuation and mixed technical signals. NOBL's high P/E ratio and low EPS growth rate result in a high PEG ratio, indicating a need for tempered enthusiasm.
Are dividend aristocrat ETFs like NOBL and SDY good buys?
Dividend aristocrats are popular names among income investors because of their long track record of growing their income and the fact that most of them are blue-chip names with a commanding market share in their industries.

NOBL: Not A Competitive Solution Among Dividends
NOBL ETF tracks the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index, offering a 2.03% dividend yield and over 8% 5-year CAGR, with a competitive 0.35% expense ratio. Despite a lower dividend yield compared to peers, NOBL appears as a liquid and balanced choice. Before 2020, Dividend Aristocrats offered a better risk-reward ratio, lower volatility, and a 29% P/E discount compared to the S&P 500.
NOBL: Dividend Aristocrats Are Riskier Than Ever
Dividend investing has evolved; traditional approaches may no longer yield high returns due to market changes and algorithmic trading. NOBL's 2% yield is unattractive compared to alternatives, and its equal weighting doesn't mitigate the low yield issue. Quality dividend stocks are still valuable, but investors must be tactical and flexible in portfolio management.
NOBL: Attractive Idea But Doomed To Underperform
ProShares S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats ETF tracks the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index which consists of stocks on the S&P 500 that have had a history of consecutively raising dividend payments annually for 25+ years. While tracking this index sounds like an interesting idea, the approach is flawed because it excludes many high-quality companies with much higher dividend growth rates. NOBL has underperformed its competitors by more than 30% in the last ten years without offering significantly higher yields or lower volatility.

NOBL: A 25-Year Dividend Growth Streak Doesn't Equal High Quality
NOBL tracks the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index, selecting large-cap stocks which have increased regular annual dividend payments by at least 25 years. Its expense ratio is 0.35%. Such strong dividend growth track records imply that NOBL is a high-quality portfolio. However, I calculated a rather disappointing 8.57/10 sector-adjusted profit score, which ranks #81/102 among large-cap value ETFs. NOBL trades at 20.68x forward earnings, or 2.34 points cheaper than SPY. However, its estimated earnings growth is 9% lower, with VIG featuring a better growth/value combination.
