Fidelity International High Dividend ETF focuses on high dividend stocks from developed markets but has a short-term selection methodology. FIDI's 12-month yield-based approach results in weaker dividend growth and total returns compared to IDV's 3-5 year evaluation period. FIDI's total return since inception is 18.8%, significantly lower than IDV's 37.1%, indicating inferior long-term performance.
For those looking to build a portfolio of income-producing assets that may allow one to live off of dividends in retirement (without having to sell much, if all, of one's invested shares), the following three Fidelity ETFs may be worth considering.
Building a sizable nest egg can take decades. But once it's there, it can fuel a sizable income stream for a lifetime.
