DVYA: Commendable Screening Intent, But The Outcome Isn't Good Enough
iShares Asia/Pacific Dividend ETF offers exposure to 50 high-yielding Asia-Pacific stocks, but is heavily concentrated in Australia and Hong Kong, and excludes REITs. While DVYA eventually weights its portfolio based on the indicated dividend yield, prospective stocks are made to clear six different screeners before making the cut. Despite a strong yield above 5.75% and a low P/E, DVYA has underperformed broader Pacific ETFs like IPAC quite significantly.
