CGDG offers exposure to global stocks that are expected to provide meaningful yield and DPS growth in the future. 48.7% of its net assets are allocated to U.S. stocks. It also has a footprint in the developed, emerging, and even frontier markets. Its performance is disappointing for now, as it trailed both IVV and even ACWI from October 2023-September 2024.
The Capital Group Dividend Growers ETF offers a strong dividend growth strategy with a 1.5% forward yield and an impressive 25% total return since inception. CGDG's diversified portfolio of 85-90 securities focuses heavily on technology, industrials, and financials, providing balanced exposure across different economic cycles. The ETF's top holdings show solid dividend safety, sustainability, and growth, making it ideal for long-term investors seeking stable and growing income.
