This actively managed, model-driven exchange-traded fund (ETF) aims to achieve its investment goals by primarily allocating capital to U.S. equity securities. It focuses on companies demonstrating high 'total shareholder yield' alongside robust profitability metrics, such as strong return on equity (ROE) and/or return on assets (ROA). The portfolio predominantly features stocks from businesses either based in the U.S. or listed on an American exchange. While typically concentrating on large- and mid-capitalization firms, the fund retains the flexibility to invest across all sectors. It is classified as a non-diversified fund.
Barring a reversal of epic proportions in the final three and a half months of 2026, value stocks and the related ETFs will likely again lag their growth counterparts when this year draws to a close. That doesn't mean value investing is dead.
I prioritize dividend growth investing, building a core portfolio of select ETFs and high-quality individual stocks for stability and passive income. My approach favors continuity and flexibility, avoiding the risks of abrupt transitions from growth to dividend stocks near retirement. The portfolio centers on seven dividend growth ETFs, balancing moderate yield with robust growth potential and sector diversification.
WisdomTree US Value Fund (WTV) is a 5-star ETF focusing on shareholder yield, blending quality, momentum, and value factors. WTV offers a 2.16% SEC yield and a 6.5% shareholder yield, with double-digit long-term dividend growth and a robust dividend growth profile. The ETF's methodology screens for high-quality, high-momentum, high-shareholder-yield stocks, resulting in a diversified portfolio with sector and stock concentration advantages.
Inflation relentlessly erodes purchasing power, making dividend growth essential for income investors to maintain real income. A barbell strategy—combining moderate-yielding dividend growth stocks/ETFs and 6.5%+ yielding investment grade preferreds—offers both growth and current income. AI-driven capex by large-cap S&P 500 firms is powering economic growth and masking weakness among lower-income consumers.
WisdomTree U.S. Value Fund has outperformed IWD since adopting a shareholder yield focus in 2017 but exhibits higher volatility and drawdowns. WTV's strategy blends quality and shareholder yield, emphasizing buybacks and dividends, but its quality metrics lag IWD and DIVB, making it 'quality-aware' rather than 'quality-focused.' With a 5.86% shareholder yield, 14.64x forward P/E, and 13.63% next-year EPS growth, WTV offers strong GARP characteristics plus solid sector diversification.
