The ‘Sleep-Well-At-Night’ Portfolio: Monthly Income With Near-Zero Drama
- This post may contain links from our sponsors and affiliates, and Flywheel Publishing may receive compensation for actions taken through them. With the NASDAQ 100 at a new all-time high and the S&P 500 challenging its record high, it’s getting easier for investors to sleep at night. That said, for those who were kept up at night this spring with President Trump’s tariff rhetoric in the lead-up to so-called Liberation Day — and the ensuing fallout in stock prices — I do think that it’s still worth considering some of the more defensive value names out there. Like it or not, a “tech winter” and market-wide correction will happen again, eventually, as part of natural market cycles. And it may not be met with a timely V-shaped recovery like the one we’ve been treated to since the market bottomed out back in April. In this piece, 24/7 Wall St. looks at a few monthly income plays that can help investors sleep soundly, even if tariffs, geopolitical tensions, the Fed or other concerns continue to weigh more heavily on investor sentiment as we enter the second half of 2025. So, if you’re in the market for a so-called SWAN (sleep well at night) portfolio, which has picked up traction with some Reddit posters on the r/dividends subreddit, the following two exchange-traded funds (ETFs) may be of interest to you. Key Points in This Article: SPHD offers a dividend currently yielding 3.44% and an attractive forward P/E multiple. BND offers a dividend currently yielding 3.75% and an exceptionally low expense ratio. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here. (Sponsor) Invesco S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility ETF (SPHD) Invesco S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility ETF (NYSEARCA:SPHD) is a fantastic way for passive investors to get a higher yield than the S&P 500 and a lower degree of volatility. Indeed, whenever you have fatter dividends and a lower correlation to the rest of the market, you have a stock that can be relied upon when stocks collectively fly south. With a below-average beta of 0.77 and an above-average yield of 3.44%, there’s a lot to love about the low-cost ETF, which, I think, is incredibly underrated. What kind of stocks and REITs comprise the SCHD ETF? The REITs, utilities, and consumer staples comprise close to 55% of the portfolio. Indeed, these are sectors that tend to naturally sport lower betas and higher yields. With names such as Crown Castle (NYSE:CCI) and Verizon (NYSE:VZ) among the top holdings (I’ve praised both dividend plays in prior pieces), I do view the defensive ETF as a fine choice for those looking to construct a “SWAN” portfolio while the price of admission is cheap, with the SCHD shares only recently falling into correction territory. Finally, the SCHD has a very reasonable 14.7 times forward price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple, making it magnitudes cheaper than the S&P 500. Though the management fee of 0.30% is higher than your run-of-the-mill S&P 500 ETF, I think the slightly higher fee is worth paying up for, given the unique exposure you’ll get and the likely limited downside come the next market-wide spill. Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund (BND) If you really want a great night’s rest, adding some bond exposure to your portfolio may be a good idea. The Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund (NASDAQ:BND) is a go-to for those who want simplicity and broad diversification across the investment-grade U.S. bond market. With a monthly payout and a rock-bottom expense ratio (0.03%), the BND is an easy buy for those looking to beef up the bond portion of their portfolio. At the time of this writing, the BND sports a 3.75% yield, which is pretty standard these days. For investors seeking to minimize fees and spread bets across a wide range of maturities, perhaps there is no better one-stop shop to pick up for the summer. While the BND won’t juice your returns, it can help you worry less about your portfolio once the stock market encounters its next big rough patch. As always, younger investors, even those who are easily started, should have a preference for stocks over bonds. Either way, a small amount in bonds, cash and even CDs is never a bad idea, especially for those who have a lower tolerance for risk.

2 Schwab ETFs for Steady Retirement Income
- This post may contain links from our sponsors and affiliates, and Flywheel Publishing may receive compensation for actions taken through them. As the tail end of the Baby Boomer generation reaches the qualifying full retirement age, a considerable number of those entering or already enjoying retirement need to find a balance in their time management. Specifically, they need to find equilibrium between the time they devote to managing their retirement portfolios and the time they spend on travel, hobbies and other opportunities that were hindered by employment responsibilities. For those seeking to devote a minimum amount of work to the former while simultaneously being able to enjoy the latter (without undue daily financial worries), two Charles Schwab’s exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have proven to be a popular solution since the 1990s. For thousands of retirees who want to combine a growth component with mitigated volatility, diversification and income, the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHD) has become a popular choice. Taking the diversification aspect one step further, there are dozens of financial investment opportunities every day taking place around the globe that often go totally unnoticed and unreported in financial media. For those investors seeking international exposure for their portfolios with a comparable degree of growth, income, diversification and risk containment, the Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHY) may appeal to them. Key Points in This Article: These two dividend-focused Schwab ETFs can provide a reliable stream of retirement income. While both provided strong yield, SCHD and SCHY are also focused on dividend growth. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here. (Sponsor) Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF Among retirees, the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: SCHD) is an ETF that meets the growth, income and stability requirements of many portfolios that are providing living expense funds for those in their golden years. Designed to track the Dow Jones US Dividend 100 Index, stocks under consideration for inclusion in SCHD must meet the following criteria: Minimum of 10 consecutive years of dividend payments Floating market capitalization minimum of $500 minimum Minimum average daily trading volume of $2 million Schwab deploys a four-step calculation that determines ranking, which may differ from that of the Dow Jones US Dividend 100 Index: Cash flow-to-total dDebt ratio Return on equity Dividend yield Five-year dividend growth rate The top 100 scoring companies are included in the index. If two companies have the same score, the one with the larger dividend gets the higher ranking. At the time of this writing, other SCHD details include: Dividend Yield 3.97% Dividend Payment Frequency Quarterly Dividend Growth (trailing) 16.69% Dividend Payout Ratio 56.99% Total Assets $68.16 billion Daily Trade Volume Average 18.26 million shares Inception Date 10-20-2011 Expense Ratio 0.06% 1-year trailing return 3.92% 3-year trailing return 3.77% 5-year trailing return 12.23% 10-year trailing return 10.58% The top five weighted holdings in SCHD exemplify how the ETF provides investors with exposure to numerous sectors: Coca-Cola: 4.35% Verizon Communications: 4.34% Altria Group: 4.30% Lockheed Martin: 4.26% Cisco Systems: 4.17% The top five weighted sectors in SCHD are: Consumer defensive: 19.65% Energy: 18.80% Health care: 14.55% Industrials: 11.13% Technology: 10.76% A minimum of 90% of the stocks in the SCHD portfolio are also in the Dow Jones US Dividend 100 Index, although rankings may differ. Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF For equivalent levels of criteria selection, growth potential, income, and stability in an international ETF, the Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: SCHY) complements SCHD very seamlessly in a portfolio. Similarly to SCHD, SCHY will only consider companies with a minimum unbroken 10-year track record of dividend payouts, as well as market cap and liquidity parameters. The next 4 calculated elements determine rankings: Cash flow-to-total debt ratio Return on equity Dividend yield Five-year dividend growth rate The top 400 stocks that make the cut are then calculated for historical price volatility, and those that exceed the overall average are eliminated from the running. The final 100 that make the cut that are added to the portfolio, under the following weighting caps, which are adjusted and rebalanced each quarter: No individual stock weighting to exceed 4% No sector weighting to exceed 15% Any emerging market sector stocks cannot collectively exceed 15% Dividend Yield 3.89% Dividend Payment Frequency Quarterly Dividend Growth (trailing 3-years)) 20.29% Dividend Payout Ratio 54.80% Total Assets $1.1 billion Daily Trade Volume Average 361,208 shares Inception Date 10-20-2011 Expense Ratio 0.08% 1-year trailing return 15.46% 3-year trailing return 7.67% 5-year trailing return N/A 10-year trailing return N/A Like SCHD, the top five weighted holdings in SCHY also span numerous sectors: Enel SpA: 4.69% Wesfarmers Ltd.: 4.22% Vinci SA: 4.18% British American Tobacco: 4.04% Unilever: 4.02% The top five weighted sectors in SCHY are: Consumer defensive: 15.82% Financial services: 15.33% Communications services: 13.15% Industrials: 12.07% Health care: 11.44% Some Strategies to Keep in Mind Selection for asset liquidations mandated under RMD rules should be submitted to careful deliberation in order to maintain income stream while preserving sufficient growth to keep up with inflation. Retirees that are relying on their portfolio for their living expense income will likely want to keep the following tips in mind if adding SCHD and/or SCHY to an IRA: SCHD dividends are qualified dividends, meaning that they qualify for taxations at lower capital gains rates than as income. As dividends from SCHY are from international companies, portions of those dividends may not qualify, depending on criteria such as if the stock meets the minimum 61-day holding threshold from the ETF, etc. A tax-professional should likely be consulted if there are any questions. Required minimum distribution (RMD) mandates commence when an account holder reaches age 73. Depending on what other assets are in the portfolio, the long term viability of SCHD and SCHY to continue steady growth and continued reliable income should be weighed against any other assets to determine if they should be incrementally liquidated to meet RMD dictates, or if other growth assets might be more suitable. The combination of growth, income and diversity offered from SCHD and SCHY might weather future market turbulence better than other assets which might be more geared for growth or only for income, and thus more vulnerable.

SCHD vs. QQQI: Dividend Growth or Monthly Cash—What’s Better?
- Key Points The SCHD ETF brings decent yield and exposure to a diversified array of dividend growers. In contrast, the QQQI ETF pays frequent dividends and tempts investors with a huge annual yield. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) How do you define a “better” exchange traded funds (ETF) for passive income investors? You might prefer an ETF with an established track record of dividend growth. Alternatively, you may choose a fund that offers a higher dividend yield and pays its distributions more often. Your financial freedom could depend on your ability to pick out the right high-yield dividend ETFs for your portfolio. Two popular income-focused funds are superior to most, but investors should know the crucial differences between them. Knowledge is power, so let’s dig deep into the fantastic features of two high-powered dividend ETFs for 2025. SCHD for Dividend Growth Maybe you’ve heard about dividend funds that put cash in your account each and every month. To be completely honest, the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHD) isn’t one of those funds. The fact is, Schwab’s U.S. Dividend Equity ETF pays out its cash distributions to investors once every three months. On the other hand, the fund’s yield is quite good, so patient shareholders will be richly rewarded. There are 103 stocks in the SCHD ETF’s holdings, and this fund tracks the Dow Jones U.S. Dividend 100 Index. Consequently, if you own the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF, you’ll get exposure to stocks covering a wide variety of market sectors. In other words, there’s a safety factor with the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF because it’s highly diversified. Browse through the fund’s holdings list and you’ll recognize all kinds of famous names, such as Home Depot (NYSE:HD), Verizon Communications (NYSE:VZ), Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO), Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT), and Chevron (NYSE:CVX). Now, you may have noticed that the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF includes not just dividend payers, but also many dividend growers. As a result, while I can’t promise that the SCHD ETF will increase its dividends every quarter, I can say that the fund historically grew its dividend payments over the long term. It’s exciting to consider that the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF’s dividend payments might continue to grow in the coming years. The fund already features a trailing 12-month distribution yield (i.e., a dividend yield) of 4.03%, which is certainly eye-catching. Furthermore, SCHD only takes an expense ratio (i.e., an annual management fee) of 0.06%. All in all, you can get decent quarterly dividends and low-cost diversification with the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF. Monthly Cash Payouts with QQQI Dividend growth is great, and it’s always nice to have an added layer of safety that comes with broad market sector diversification. However, while the SCHD ETF has its advantages, ultra-high yield seekers may prefer the NEOS NASDAQ-100 High Income ETF (NASDAQ:QQQI). The annual expense ratio for the NEOS NASDAQ-100 High Income ETF is 0.68%, and this is much higher than the 0.06% expense ratio of Schwab’s U.S. Dividend Equity ETF. When you learn about QQQI’s huge expected annual yield, though, you might still choose this fund over SCHD. After glancing at the full holdings list for the NEOS NASDAQ-100 High Income ETF, I discovered that the fund has around 100 stocks. They’re mostly large-cap technology stocks, which makes sense because the QQQI ETF invests in constituents of the NASDAQ 100 stock index. Compared to SCHD, which has holdings spread across numerous market sectors, you won’t get as much diversification with the tech-heavy NEOS NASDAQ-100 High Income ETF. So, why should anyone prefer QQQI, which has higher management fees and may be less safe during a market downturn? One reason to choose the NEOS NASDAQ-100 High Income ETF is that the fund pays out its cash distributions every month instead of just one every quarter. Therefore, QQQI’s shareholders have more chances to reinvest the distributions and multiply the effect of compounding. That’s not the only advantage of the NEOS NASDAQ-100 High Income ETF. This fund also boasts an annual yield that’s superior to SCHD’s 4.03%. In fact, the currently expected annual distribution rate for the QQQI ETF is a whopping 15.35%. SCHD vs. QQQI: Different Strokes for Different Folks Some investors might claim that the NEOS NASDAQ-100 High Income ETF has a greater margin of safety since its yield is substantially bigger. The point is that you’ll get a nice cash cushion every month with QQQI — very little waiting required. What you’ll get with the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF, however, is dividends that will probably grow over the long term. Plus, you’ll get instant diversification with minuscule management fees if you own SCHD. The “winner,” then, is the fund that fits your objectives. Do you want huge yield very soon, or dividend growth prospects for the future? After some reflection, you might decide that you want both. That’s fine as you can choose to own some shares of the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF and a few shares of NEOS NASDAQ-100 High Income ETF. With this approach, there’s no need to limit yourself as SCHD and QQQI can both be wealth-building “winners” for your portfolio.The post SCHD vs. QQQI: Dividend Growth or Monthly Cash—What’s Better? appeared first on 24/7 Wall St..

Make an Easy $2,852 in Passive Income By Invest $25,000 in These Dividend Stocks Today
- Key Points Put your money to work. Make it make you money. It can make you a good deal of consistent money if you invest wisely in higher-yielding Dividend King stocks. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) Put your money to work and make it make you money. Unfortunately, it’s not going to make you much money in a standard low-yielding savings account. But it can make you a good deal of consistent money if you invest wisely in higher-yielding Dividend King stocks. Not only are you investing in reliable growth, but you’re also investing in a company with reliable dividends. Look at Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO), for example. The company just approved its 63rd consecutive annual dividend increase, raising its quarterly dividend to 51 cents per share. It’s considered a Dividend King because it’s been paying out a dividend for more than 50 years. In KO’s case, it’s been distributing yield since 1971. Today, if you bought $25,000 worth of the KO stock, you would take ownership of 349 shares. With a $2.04 annual payout, you can sit back and collect about $712 in yearly income. And all you had to do was buy and hold a popular stock. As for other Dividend Kings to consider, here are three you may want to buy today. Pepsico With a yield of 4.3%, Pepsico (NASDAQ: PEP) is a familiar name with a strong, dependable yield. PEP has now raised its dividend for the 53rd time since 1965. Most recently, PEP paid out a quarterly dividend of $1.4225 per share – a 5% increase year over year – on June 30. Annualized, that’s $5.69. So, if you invest $25,000 in PEP now, you can take ownership of about 188 shares. You’re buying a dependable company with years of success. And, using today’s PEP price of $132.60, you can collect $1,069.72 in yearly income just by holding the PEP stock. Helping, analysts at RBC just reiterated a sector perform rating on the stock with a target price of $163 per share. We also have to consider the company is investing in inorganic growth as it gets more involved with healthier food and beverages. For example, PEP just acquired Poppi – a healthy soda brand – for $1.95 billion. American States Water With a yield of 2.41%, Dividend King, American States Water (NYSE: AWR) provides water and electric services with a strong history of consistent dividend increases. It’s paid out a dividend every year since 1931. While it may sound boring, it’s a moneymaker with a tight dividend. Just last month, AWR approved a quarterly dividend of $0.4655 per share – its 356th consecutive dividend – which is payable on June 3 to shareholders of record as of May 19. Annualized, that’s $1.862. If you invested $25,000 in AWR, you’d take ownership of just over 322 shares. That would hand you about $599.56 per year in dividends. Helping, AWR just blew earnings out of the water. In its first quarter, EPS of 70 cents beat by three cents. Revenue of $148.01 million, up 9.4% year over year, beat by $2.16 million. Plus, analysts at Wells Fargo just upgraded AWR to an equal weight rating with a price target of $84. Target With a yield of 4.73%, Target (NYSE: TGT) is another interesting, yielding opportunity. The company just declared a quarterly dividend of $1.12 per share. Annualized that’s $4.48 per share. If you were to buy $25,000 worth of the TGT stock, you’d take ownership of just under 264 shares. Not only can you profit from potential stock price appreciation, but you can also collect an annual dividend of $1,182.72. Granted, Target has come under pressure on earnings. However, it does look like most of the negativity has been priced into the retailer. Helping, TD Cowen analysts initiated coverage of the stock with a hold rating with a price target of $105. “The analysts highlighted Target’s attractive core business, which is supported by innovative and exclusive products, as well as profitable digital fulfillment strategies with potential for scale,” as noted by Investing.com. If you want to diversify even more, there are always dividend-paying ETFs. SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 High Dividend ETF With an expense ratio of 0.07% and a yield of just under 5%, the SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 High Dividend ETF (NYSEARCA:SPYD) tracks the total return performance of the S&P 500 High Dividend Index, which is designed to measure the performance of the top 80 high dividend stocks on the S&P 500. At the moment, it has 77 holdings. Some of its top holdings include CVS Health Group, Consolidated Edison, Philip Morris, AT&T, Exelon Corp., Verizon, and Altria Group to name just a few. iShares Core High Dividend ETF There’s also the iShares Core High Dividend ETF (NYSE: HDV). With an expense ratio of 0.08% and a yield of 3.36%, the HDV ETF tracks the investment results of an index composed of relatively high dividend-paying U.S. equities. Some of its 75 holdings include Exxon Mobil, Johnson & Johnson, Progressive Corp., Chevron, AbbVie, Philip Morris, AT&T, and Coca-Cola.

Verizon's Convergence Story Delivers Renewed Growth Prospects

If You Invested $10,000 In SCHD 5 Years Ago, This Is How Much Cash From Dividends You Would Have Today
- In the not too distant past, a focus on dividends was considered the province of retirees and conservative investors who shied away from market volatility. Taking risks with high flying tech stocks led to dramatic gains during bull markets, but their whipsaw corrections before climbing to new highs were not for the faint of heart. The bull market of the past decade has concurrently led to the exponential proliferation of the FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) ethos, especially among young people. The DIY mindset, the rise of cryptocurrencies, and the spread of one click stock buying platforms from RobinHood and others have contributed to the rise of FIRE. Since it strategizes a strong work ethic, aggressive investing, a thrifty lifestyle, and an independent control over one’s retirement as the path towards a wealthy and happy post-employment life, FIRE devotees have built a movement among Millennials and Gen-Z. Too young to have experienced the dotcom bust of the 1990s, the post 9/11 market woes that presaged The Gulf War, and the 2008 subprime mortgage banking collapse, many FIRE adherents have never known a bear market. The recent reactive market turbulence to President Trump’s tariff policies have caused thousands of point swings on the Dow Jones Average, and have given a dose of investing reality to those FIRE adherents who only thought markets only went up. Discovering that their risk tolerance was weaker than anticipated, a good many FIRE adherents have turned to dividend stocks and funds with a growth component that can still deliver their FIRE objectives, albeit at a slower pace and with fewer sleepless nights. Key Points Once the hallmark of retirees and conservative baby boomer investors, dividends have gained a following among FIRE devotees. ETFs that feature solid annual growth with a dividend component can be good wealth building platforms when DRIP plans are implemented. The recent turbulence in the markets has made growth platforms with a solid dividend that implies greater stability and lower volatility even more attractive with investors of late. Are you ahead or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute – get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF SCHD is a growth ETF with a 4% yield and lower volatility than those ETFs heavily weighted with volatile tech stocks., yet still capable of strong annual growth. In their search for an alternative to high-flying Magnificent 7 stocks or S&P 500 Index ETFs heavily weighted with those stocks, the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: SCHD) is an ETF that meets the growth and stability requirements of FIRE followers. Designed to track the Dow Jones U.S. Dividend 100 Index, stock inclusion in SCHD must meet the following criteria: Minimum of 10 consecutive years of dividend payments. Floating Market Capitalization minimum of $500 minimum. Minimum Average Daily Trading Volume of $2 million. SCHD uses a 4 step calculation that takes free cash flow, total debt, return on equity, indicated annual dividend, and five year dividend growth rate to gauge a ranking. The top 100 scoring companies are included in the index. If two companies have the same score, the one with the larger dividend gets the higher ranking. At the time of this writing, other SCHD details include: Dividend Yield 4.03% Dividend Payment Frequency Quarterly Dividend Growth (trailing) 16.69% Dividend Payout Ratio 63.87% Total Assets $66.9 billion Daily Trade Volume Average 18.84 million shares Inception Date 10-20-2011 Expense Ratio 0.06% The top 5 weighted holdings in SCHD are: ConocoPhillips – 4.42% Coca-Cola – 4.41% Verizon Communications – 4.28% Lockheed Martin – 4.24% Altria Group – 4.21% The Dividend Difference As the calculator demonstrates, a $10,000 investment in SCHD back in January, 2020 would be worth $16,105.12 today, at the time of this writing, which equates to a 61.05 % ROI. The total return would be $6,105.12. . The annualized return equates to 9.24%. This calculation also includes compounding through reinvested dividends. The reinvested dividend value equates to $1,103.91. The cash dividends paid out from the initial 172.21 shares equates to $2,277.66 . If the dividends were not reinvested, the total return would be $3,375.24 . Therefore, reinvesting the dividends enabled an additional return difference of $2,729.88 over the 5 year span. The Power of Compounding Dividend compounding can be a wealth building force multiplier but also has the flexibility for fast liquidity in cases of emergency. The principles of wealth building through dollar cost averaging and compounding are standard practice among FIRE devotees. In pure growth asset scenarios, the investor needs to keep adding funds in order to fuel additional purchases. As the calculations clearly demonstrate, the dividends supplied by SCHD provide sufficient capital for buying additional shares and perpetuating growth even without the benefit of additional capital. By using dividend compounding, FIRE adherents can build wealth at an approximate 10% annual clip, and there are also additional benefits: By adding additional investment capital, an investor can multiply the growth compounding leverage on top of the dividends at their discretion. As SCHD’s dividend growth rate is continuing in double digits annually, the dividend reinvestment component will also add annual buying power to accelerate growth. The dividends from SCHD can be diverted into liquid cash should an emergency need for their deployment arise. For those still seeking a strong growth rate but with lower volatility and an income factor for greater flexibility, SCHD is a strong candidate for consideration, as the numbers display.

3 Best Inverse ETFs to Profit in a Market Crash
- Key Points The SH and PSQ ETFs provide simple inverse exposure to major U.S. market indexes. For bearish-leaning risk takers, the SPXS ETF offers powerful leverage when the S&P 500 declines. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) The first quarter of this year reminded optimistic investors that stocks don’t only go up. Trade war tensions, recession worries, and other factors could spur a market crash in 2025. Instead of using fancy strategies like short-selling stocks or buying put options, there’s an easier way that doesn’t require a margin account. Bearish-leaning investors can profit from a stock market crash of 20% or more by owning inverse exchange traded funds (ETFs). These funds are specifically designed to gain value when a stock market index, such as the S&P 500 or the NASDAQ 100, goes down. There are risks involved, to be sure, but the following three inverse ETFs could set you up for powerful returns if the market craters. ProShares Short S&P 500 (SH) The S&P 500 is a commonly cited stock index that represents a broad selection of large-cap U.S.-focused companies. Therefore, a simple way to profit from a stock market crash would be to hold an inverse ETF that gains value when the S&P 500 collapses. ProShares offers an ETF that serves this exact purpose. It’s a fund called the ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF (NYSEARCA:SH), and it seeks to move inversely to the daily performance of the S&P 500. What’s good about moving inversely to the S&P 500 is that it’s usually a slower-moving index than the NASDAQ 100. Therefore, the ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF should carry less risk than some other inverse ETFs. Remember, the S&P 500 comprises a broad range of stocks from multiple market sectors. Some S&P 500 component stocks include Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Chevron (NYSE:CVX), Costco Wholesale (NASDAQ:COST), Abbvie (NYSE:ABBV), Verizon Communications (NYSE:VZ), and Philip Morris International (NYSE:PM). Thus, you’re actually achieving what I call “inverse diversification” with the SH ETF. Even with the somewhat de-risking effect of “inverse diversification,” the ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF could gain value quickly if there’s a stock market crash. Be aware, though, that the SH ETF won’t necessarily move up at the exact same pace that the S&P 500 goes down. That’s because the ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF inversely tracks the S&P 500 throughout the day but then resets and rebalances the next day. As ProShares explains, “For any holding period other than a day, your return may be higher or lower than the Daily Target [i.e., the S&P 500]. These differences may be significant.” To put it another way, you’ll get faithful inverse S&P 500 tracking for a day with the SH ETF. However, the longer you hold the fund, the more the results can vary from what you might expect. Consequently, while the ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF would probably make you money during a market crash, it’s not meant to be held for too long. ProShares Short QQQ (PSQ) If you’re willing to accept more risk, consider that the NASDAQ 100 mostly covers only one market sector (technology) and only includes around 100 stocks (as opposed to around 500 stocks in the more diversified S&P 500). So, an ETF that inversely tracks the NASDAQ 100 is somewhat riskier but could yield greater rewards in the event of a market crash. To that end, you might consider the ProShares Short QQQ ETF (NYSEARCA:PSQ). This fund inversely corresponds to the daily performance of the NASDAQ 100 index. Bear in mind that the NASDAQ 100 is mainly focused on technology sector stocks, such as Apple, Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO), and NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA). You won’t get as much “inverse diversification” with the ProShares Short QQQ ETF as you would get with the ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF, but you could potentially achieve greater returns during a market crash with the PSQ ETF. Much like with the ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF, the ProShares Short QQQ ETF is subject to unexpected results if you hold the fund for longer than a day. Hence, I’ll send out a similar warning: even if the stock market is collapsing, don’t hold the PSQ ETF for too long because the risks will probably increase over time. Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares ETF (SPXS) My third entry for the best inverse ETFs to profit in a market crash is the Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares ETF (NYSEARCA:SPXS). This, like the SH ETF, may be somewhat de-risked because it inversely tracks the S&P 500 and has “inverse diversification.” However, the SPXS ETF is still the riskiest fund on this list. What makes the Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares ETF so high-risk and potentially high-reward is that the fund is inverse and triple-leveraged. This means that the SPXS ETF, on a daily basis, moves three times as fast as the S&P 500, but in the opposite direction. In theory, you might assume that the Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares ETF would go up 60% if the S&P 500 goes down 20%. Again, however, there’s no assurance of faithful index tracking beyond one day. Hence, you could get highly unexpected results if you hold the Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares ETF for a long time. That’s why it’s probably too risky to hold the SPXS ETF for more than a couple of weeks, even during a stock market crash. Besides, if the stock market suddenly rallies, the Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares ETF could make a triple-magnified move to the downside. The point is that the SPXS ETF is for nimble, sniper-like traders who can get into and out of a position quickly. If you prefer to take on less risk, consider the non-leveraged ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF or ProShares Short QQQ ETF.The post 3 Best Inverse ETFs to Profit in a Market Crash appeared first on 24/7 Wall St..

[00:00:07] Doug McIntyre: The huge majority of large companies in the United States have some tariff exposure. Yeah, they do. Companies have a lot, a lot of tariff exposure and, and people are, worried sick about owning them. But there is a group of companies where tariff exposure is fairly small, aren’t there? [00:00:27] Lee Jackson: Yeah, there is, and we’ve tried to detail this out to our readers so they could, if they’re attempted to move or shift some of their capital, it’s not a bad idea to look at these. [00:00:38] Lee Jackson: And it’s items you would expect. Of course, it’s real estate Insurance companies are not really exposed to foreign tariffs. consumer staples are not, exposed to foreign service. And, and typically the companies that are in this group, communications companies, AT&T (NYSE: T), Verizon, they’re not subject to a ton of, tariffs by China. [00:01:06] Lee Jackson: And I don’t think a lot of people in China have Verizon. So it’s companies like that. So, and, and, and a lot of these companies, they pay good dividends. they have domestic reduction, less Verizon and [00:01:17] Doug McIntyre: Verizon and AT&T. [00:01:19] Lee Jackson: Yeah. Yeah, Verizon. Well, people have been buying at t over the last year. Its dividend has come down to about 4%, but Verizon pays a 6% dividend. [00:01:30] Lee Jackson: And so that’s a good area to be in. some of the big, insurance companies, Allstate, all those, they pay big, they, they don’t pay dividends as big as Verizon does, but they’re solid dividends. And again, consumer Staples, well, you, you Proctor and Gamble, you have Kimberly Clark (NYSE: KMB). Kimberly Clark makes diapers. [00:01:57] Lee Jackson: I know as a new grandfather, diapers are apparently very well needed. So they, the demand never drops for these.And Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO) falls into that category as a consumer staple, as does your favorite stock, Altria. [00:02:14] Doug McIntyre: I love Altria. [00:02:15] Lee Jackson: I know you do, but it’s, those are all, and, and Altria pays a strong [00:02:19] Doug McIntyre: 7% dividend. [00:02:20] Doug McIntyre: Oh God. Yes. And they’ve got the, they’ve got the cash. They’re, to me, they are the dividend king. The dividend has been raised 55 times in 50 years. [00:02:34] Lee Jackson: They are a dividend king. They, they fit the bill and in their recent earnings report, which was outstanding, any drop off in, in SIGs, burning SIGs, sales was more than made up by, the, the smuggle, vapor vapor stuff and the pouch stuff. [00:02:56] Lee Jackson: The, the stuff that you, you put between your cheek and gum, like right here. Garrison used to say. Yeah. So, [00:03:04] Doug McIntyre: but yes. [00:03:04] Lee Jackson: Yeah. So I mean, if, you’re still concerned about tariffs, look at those companies, and again, it’s, it’s. consumer staples, real estate insurance communications, just companies that have domestic production and don’t have a lot of foreign exposure. [00:03:19] Lee Jackson: And that’s one safe place to be until the tariff cluster, kind of diminishes somewhat, which it will it and it will diminish because this, this can’t go on forever. But, those are the areas you can look at if you’re worried about tariffs. The post Tariffs Aren’t Going to Touch These Stocks appeared first on 24/7 Wall St..

I Finally Reached $1 Million – Here’s How I Earned $4,000 a Month from My Investments
- The million-dollar milestone is viewed by many as enough to achieve financial independence and even retirement. Despite inflation’s toll on the value of the dollar, such a sum is still respectable, even if it’s not quite enough to fund an early, comfortable retirement in a major city. Sure, $1 million isn’t what it used to be, but it’s still a lot of money. And it can finance a pretty good retirement lifestyle for those who maintain a budget and have limited liabilities and few, if any, dependents. In this piece, we’ll look into the case of a newly minted millionaire investor who’s invested their funds with passive income in mind. They’ve managed to put their $1 million to work for them, and it’s reportedly pulling in a colossal $4,000 per month, which works out to $48,000 per year. Indeed, that’s enough for many careful budgeters to retire young and in perpetuity. But is the individual taking on too much risk by reaching farther for yield? Let’s find out. Key Points This Reddit user has a good amount of income coming in from their yield-focused million-dollar portfolio. The SCHD and JEPI ETFs do the heavy lifting, while a slew of individual high-yielders act as an amusing supporting cast. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) A $1 million portfolio. How’s it positioned such that it pulls in $4,000 per year? To earn $4,000 per year in dividends, a $1 million portfolio would have to average a yield of 4.8%. That’s completely achievable in today’s higher-rate environment. With a balanced mix of dividend-focused ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds), covered call ETFs for a yield boost, and some individual higher-yielding blue-chip stocks, this individual has pulled it off, a $4,000 per-month income stream that’s well-balanced and seems to manage risk quite well. What’s at the core of the portfolio? More than $450,000 in one single ETF: the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHD), a fantastic selection for the bedrock of someone’s yield-oriented portfolio. The current yield sits at 3.72%, which is more than a percentage point shy of the 4.8% target yield their portfolio needs. So, the other half of the portfolio will need to pull a bit more than its fair share in weight to get the yield in the appropriate target range. Unsurprisingly, the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income (NYSEARCA:JEPI) ETF comprises a huge chunk of their portfolio, currently valued at just north of $200,000. Indeed, if there’s an ETF that can do the heavy lifting for the yield, it’s the JEPI, which is a covered call ETF that boasts a yield just shy of 7.5%. The JEPI is incredibly popular among American investors looking to raise their yield without raising their risk by a similar magnitude. As volatility surges off the charts, as it has been doing since Donald Trump’s Liberation Day tariff announcement, there’s an opportunity to profit from the choppiness, as options premiums rise. In any case, I think the JEPI is a fantastic portfolio diversifier and yield carrier for anyone looking to retire off dividends, rather than drawing down from one’s principal. What about the supporting cast of this yield-heavy portfolio? The SCHD and JEPI comprise close to two-thirds of the portfolio, leaving the remainder to individual dividend names, many of which pack a punch when it comes to yield. With names like Verizon (NYSE:VZ), which currently yields 6.3%, Crown Castle (NYSE:CCI) with a 5.9% yield, and Pepsi (NASDAQ:PEP) with a 4.1% yield, the individual-stock section of the portfolio isn’t just dividend-rich, it’s quite lowly-correlated to the broad market! In any case, it should come as no surprise that the stock has held up like a steady rock amid the latest sell-off that’s primarily been concentrated in higher-multiple tech stocks. While the individual names have robust dividends that can prop up the portfolio’s overall yield, I’m certainly not against concentrating more on the SCHD and JEPI, which are the stars of this million-dollar portfolio. The bottom line While the yield approach is the right fit for this individual, retirees should think more about total returns (dividends and capital gains) and perhaps think more about withdrawal rates, so they’re not limited to low-growth high-yielders that may struggle to sustain growth in the long haul. At the end of the day, thinking in terms of withdrawal rates instead of dividend yield can itself pay dividends over the long run!

I have $3,000 to invest: Should I go all in on SCHD or mix it with VOO?
- The market climate at the time of this writing can be described in a number of ways, but “boring” is certainly not one of them. Ever since President Donald Trump announced his policy of reciprocal tariffs to level the international trade playing field, the stock and bond markets have both become cyclonic in their volatility. 2,000+ point intraday swings in either direction on the Dow Jones Average and a 50 basis point swing for the 10-year Treasury Bond yield in less than a month have given even veteran investors bouts of nausea. As a result, investors from all levels of experience are looking at their portfolios and considering reassessment of their holdings, at least to better handle the current volatility and to reduce the sleepless nights of worry. Key Points The current turbulence in the stock markets are giving both novice and seasoned investors some cause for reconsidering their portfolio compositions. ETFs like SCHD have aspects like dividend focus, which may make them less volatile than ones like VOO, which exclusively tracks the S&P 500 Index. People who are new to investing can find the gigantic menu of choices overwhelming and intimidating, so knowing one’s own goals and risk tolerance before selecting an investment vehicle is a prudent rule of thumb to follow. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here here.(Sponsor) Navigating Through A Huge Menu Of Selections The huge array of available investment selections can be intimidating and overwhelming neophyte investors. A relatively new investor with $3,000 to invest was seeking vehicle suggestions, and posted a question on Reddit. He was considering the following, but was open to any other suggestions: He was considering investing in the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: SCHD) based on what he’d read from other posts. The poster was looking to contribute $100 per week to take advantage of compounding and dollar cost averaging. Admittedly young and inexperienced, he did understand how investing for the long-term was to his advantage, so he was not seeking quick, short-term gains. He was concerned with putting all of his cookies in a single basket, so was inquiring about opinions on diversifying an allocation into the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (NYSE: VOO). To his credit, the poster realizes now that the Millennial FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) meme of “VOO and chill” might not be an appropriate direction to take in the current climate. Nevertheless, he acknowledges the long-term track record of the S&P 500 and how it has benefited millions who have contributed to it regularly and let it compound to build wealth. As the poster has already established long term goals, assessing risk tolerance is probably the next factor to identify before finalizing his course of action. Taking a closer look at SCHD and VOO is probably a prudent step to accomplish this step. (All market quote details are as of the time of this writing.) Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF The Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF is an exchange traded fund that is designed to track The Dow Jones U.S. Dividend 100 Index. Dividend Yield 3.96% Dividend Payment Frequency Quarterly Dividend Growth 16.67% Dividend Payout Ratio 61.04% Total Assets $65.589 billion Daily Trade Volume Average 18.02 million shares Beta (5 year) 0.74% 1-Year Return 8.04% 5-Year Return 17.32% 10-Year Return 11.44% Inception Date 10-20-2011 Inception Price $8.40 Expense Ratio 0.06% Sector wise, SCHD’s top 5 heaviest weighted industrial areas are: Energy – 21.12% Consumer Defensive – 19.04% Health Care – 15.65% Industrials – 10.53% Technology – 9.76% The top 5 weighted holdings in SCHD are: Verizon Communications – 4.51% Coca-Cola – 4.46% Lockheed Martin – 4.26% Altria Group – 4.20% ConocoPhillips – 4.19% Vanguard S&P 500 ETF The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF is a favorite of Warren Buffett and many FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) devotees. Its tracking of the S&P 500 index has delivered sizable double digit growth for millions of portfolios over the past several years.

As one might expect, a number of the respondents agreed that some diversification was a good idea, as was the plan to invest a new contribution every week. Some of the the specifics included: Due to his youth, some suggested that it would behoove the poster to focus more on growth, and suggested SCHG (Schwab Large Cap Growth ETF), which has a superior ROI history over SCHD. In either case, reinvesting dividends to leverage compounding over the long haul was advised. Some lauded the dividend consideration, since the extra income could serve as a safety net in the event that the poster’s job were to be in jeopardy in the future. Another respondent agreed with adding VOO, but also including an ETF for international exposure so that in the event of a US economic downturn, there would be non-US holdings that could potentially offset any bearishness from the other holdings. This article is intended for informational purposes. Any need for more in-depth advice should come from a financial professional.

Verizon: Not Overly Incentivized To Stay Bullish Ahead Of Q1 Earnings
- Verizon has gotten off to a decent start in FY25, with a 6% gain, outperforming other telecommunication stocks and large-caps that have witnessed a contraction. VZ's ability to keep up this phase of alpha will now be tested by its Q1 earnings which are due to be announced on the 22nd of April, pre-market. VZ has quite a patchy revenue track record during earnings season, and Q1 is also its seasonally softest quarter, compounded even more by competitive pricing by its peers.

Vanguard High Dividend VYM and Global X Super Dividend DIV Are Top ETFs to Buy In April
- Liberation Day was met with some pretty significant panic selling activity. And while it’s tough to justify buying shares in this environment as President Trump keeps raising the bar on tariffs on more than a handful of nations, I still think that a cool, calm mindset and a greater focus on the long-term trajectory will allow investors to stay the course as the fasten-your-seatbelt sign illuminates once again as we enter the month of April. Key Points If the correction has you seeking lower betas and higher yields, the VYM and DIV may be your cup of tea. If 2025 ends up a drawn-out rotation year, punching your ticket to a dividend ETF could prove smart. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here here.(Sponsor) Undoubtedly, Liberation Day, which pulled the curtain on tariff details, seemed much more than Wall Street may have expected. Indeed, perhaps retail investors thought Trump would be more willing to backtrack and reach some compromise to prevent further downside in a market already in a full-blown correction. At this juncture, it’s unclear if there will be more such days in the future that will spark another rout in markets. Though we may be only halfway to an eventual stock market bottom, I still think drip-feeding extra cash into stocks over time could be the best way to go for both investors. If you’re nowhere near retirement, the tariff stock troubles shouldn’t scare you out of markets. However, if you’re a retiree and you’re feeling the pain and growing anxiety, it’s time to give the lower-beta passive income plays another look (perhaps at the expense of the fastest-falling names atop the Nasdaq 100), as they look to act as a pair of shocks on your portfolio, helping ride out the growing number of potholes and cracks on the road to retirement while paying you dividends for staying aboard the bumpier ride. Here are two top income ETFs worth checking out as the tariff tumble drags into April. Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM) For the Vanguard fans out there, the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (NYSEARCA:VYM) seems like a wise buy to brace for tariff uncertainties and increased investor indigestion following Liberation Day. With the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 in correction territory, shares of the VYM are off just over 4% from their highs. The 0.06% expense ratio is a low price to pay for a basket of some of the bluest blue chip dividend payers in the U.S. The higher dividend yield (2.61%) and less painful ride could make it a fine middleground for rattled retirees who are ready to cash out of the biggest winners on the capital gain front over the past two years. As investors rotate into defensive dividends and stocks with lower price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios, I view the VYM as having what it takes to top the S&P 500 if you’re of the belief that tariffs won’t be going away anytime soon. Personally, I think some trade deals will be inked by midsummer. Though there’s always a chance we could end the year without much progress and perhaps even stiffer tariffs. Global X Super Dividend U.S. ETF (DIV) If a 2.5-3% yield won’t cut it, perhaps the Global X Super Dividend U.S. ETF (NYSEARCA:DIV), which currently sports a 5.4% yield, may be more your cup of tea. The ETF’s strategy provides exposure to some of the highest-yielding stocks in the U.S. And while chasing yield isn’t a good idea for retirees, I do think the ETF’s methodology helps dampen the risks of dividend reductions. With a 0.45% total expense ratio, do note you’ll pay more in fees than with a comparable Vanguard income ETF. Underneath the hood, you’ll find names like Altria (NYSE:MO) and Verizon (NYSE:VZ), which boast hefty but well-covered 7% and 6% yields, respectively. While the higher yields could come at the cost of future capital gains, I must say that I’m a fan of the depressed valuations to be had in many of the DIV’s constituents. The ETF boasts a lower (0.76) beta, and while the ETF has been slumping in recent years, I do think that much of the pain is already baked in and that much of the tariff risks are relatively insulated. Unless you must have a yield of 5%, I’d stick with the VYM over the DIV. Either way, if the DIV sinks further such that the yield passes 6%, it’s tough not to think about picking up a few shares of the “super” dividend ETF if lower beta and higher income are what you’re after. The post Vanguard High Dividend VYM and Global X Super Dividend DIV Are Top ETFs to Buy In April appeared first on 24/7 Wall St..

Verizon: Renewed Growth Opportunity And Improved Monetization Through Convergence - Maintain Buy
- Verizon has executed brilliantly as it reports renewed growth through the performance metrics across consumer postpaid and broadband segments. The same has been observed in the richer bottom-lines as it contributed to a healthier balance sheet, and we leave peak 5G-related capex behind us. These reasons are also why we believe that VZ has been oversold at current levels, with it triggering a rich capital appreciation prospect along with expanded forward dividend yields.

Verizon: Financials Are Strong, The Dividend Of Almost 7% Is Safe, I Am Buying
- Verizon's shares have underperformed over the past decade, but its consistent dividend payments and potential for margin expansion present a compelling investment opportunity. Despite $120 billion in debt, Verizon's profitability and free cash flow provide a strong foundation for debt repayment and refinancing, enhancing future margins. Verizon's strong subscriber growth and guidance for 2025, coupled with a low valuation and high dividend yield, make it an attractive investment.

Is AT&T Or Verizon The Better Dividend Stock After Outperforming Q4 2024 Earnings?
- Both Verizon and AT&T have delivered outperforming Q4 results and positive outlooks. This has underpinned fundamental-driven share appreciation, which deviates from historical trends of Treasury-yield-linked volatility. But protracted uncertainties to the interest rate backdrop are likely bound to keep macro-led share volatility the theme in 2025 for both AT&T and Verizon. Looking ahead, we believe macro-led share volatility will again present opportunities for income-focused investors to lock-in on attractive dividend yields.

Verizon: The Valuation Makes No Sense
- Verizon's strong broadband subscriber growth and free cash flow generation support its dividend and investment potential. The telecom beat Q4'24 revenue estimates and met EPS expectations, showing solid momentum with 408,000 broadband customer additions and a robust free cash flow of $5.4B. Verizon's low valuation at an 8.1X forward earnings multiplier and a 12% earnings yield present a favorable risk profile for investors.

Verizon: Weighing The Positives And Negatives From The Last Quarter

- 01/27/2025
|
Verizon: Collect The Yield, Not Much Else
- Verizon reported minimal growth in Q4, with only a 1.7% sales increase and 3.1% wireless services growth, despite adding millions of new accounts. The company is now primarily a dividend play, with free cash flow guidance for 2025 lower than 2024, and capex focused mostly on network maintenance. The stock has limited upside with the 7% dividend yield the current focus.

Verizon Is A Buy Again (Rating Upgrade)
- Last Friday, Verizon reported strong quarterly numbers powered by healthy user growth. Despite a massive debt load, Verizon's utility-like cash flow generation and undervaluation make it a solid buy, with a 5-year price target of $80.64 [expected CAGR return of 15.3%]. Given improving business trends, positive growth forecasts, balance sheet deleveraging, and attractive dividend yield, I am upgrading Verizon to a "Buy" rating.

If the US government eventually mandates the telecoms must remove the lead-line cables at their own costs, as how T did in 2021, insolvency fears may arise, in our view.
