VDC: Hold And Wait For A Better Gauge On Economic Direction

VDC offers defensive exposure to blue-chip consumer staples, but sector performance lags amid mixed economic signals and no clear recession ahead. Top holdings like COST and WMT are overvalued, facing margin pressures from tariffs, though their balance sheets remain strong for the long term. VDC's total returns and dividend yield trail technology and some consumer staples peers, making it less compelling for outperformance in 2025.

Overview

The fund operates under an indexing strategy aimed at mimicking the performance of the MSCI US Investable Market Index/Consumer Staples 25/50.
