VYM: Is This All-Weather Dividend ETF Yielding 2.74% Right For You?
VYM is a low-cost dividend ETF offering an expected 2.74% dividend yield. Historically, it's delivered average returns in the large-cap value category because it's well-balanced on all factors. Low portfolio turnover and strong diversification are additional reasons to own VYM, especially for passive investors not interested in following the sometimes-eventful reconstitution of competitors like SCHD. VYM also holds an advantage over its peers in dividend safety. Its payout ratio is sufficiently low, and its constituents have paid dividends for nearly 28 years on average.
