Let's explore how dividend growth strategies held up during two of the most defining periods of recent market history: the 2008 financial crisis and the post-COVID rollercoaster. Despite the turmoil (U.S. government shutdowns, European debt crises, and endless market panic), dividend growth investors ended up with stronger results and lower drawdowns. Dividend growth doesn't always outperform. But it does shine in the moments that matter most—when fear is highest and investors are second-guessing everything.
VOO led July ETF inflows with $12.68B, while LQD and IWM witnessed sharp outflows.
As the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq-100 indexes trade near and new all-time highs now, many investors may wonder whether any bullish outlooks could already be priced into the overall stock market's valuation. The truth is that, while there are a few key reasons why higher prices might occur, investors should also consider the best ways to hedge their current portfolios.
